St Johns: your questions answered
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
Can you quote from pictures?
Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material and finish
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Any details about the material
- Something in shot to show the size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Repairs by material
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. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice
Landlord and trade work in St Johns
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Do you need sink repair in St Johns?
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, and cracks can start at the tap holes.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- A period basin that needs restoring
- A crazed, tired basin
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- Chips around the rim
What your quote should include
- What aftercare is recommended
- How your room will be protected
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- When it can be used again
