What areas do you cover?

I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.

How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It generally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Standburn, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

What affects the price in Standburn
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The type of damage
- Whether we combine several jobs
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.
Getting a price from photos
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

- Details of any past repairs

Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Leaks from the fittings
- Through cracks that let water out
- A basin that moves on its brackets
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Repair chips before they stain
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
