We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Get chips repaired early
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Should you replace it?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking.

Different materials, different repairs
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.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Summerley. What changes the price is:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Your questions about sink repair in Summerley
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
In many cases. Send us photos and we’ll tell you.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you cover the whole of Derbyshire?
The whole UK, including all of Derbyshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
