Common questions in Southtown
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Are there extra charges for Southtown?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do you cover Southtown?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Southtown and the rest of Norfolk. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Have new chips repaired quickly
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
What affects the price in Southtown
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
