What affects the price in Sutton Ings
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send photos for a quote
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the entire basin
- What it’s made of, if you know
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Sutton Ings: your questions answered
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Do you cover Sutton Ings?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Sutton Ings. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

When we’d advise against a repair
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Should you replace it?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs 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 quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
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.
How the visit works
Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let us know about parking or access
Getting a price
Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your HU7 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
