Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
When we would advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Plumbing leaks
- Widespread crazing
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins

Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Why repair rather than replace?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
