Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including South Broomhill. What changes the price is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A picture taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Landlord and trade work in South Broomhill
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in South Broomhill as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
