What we do, step by step
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a couple of hours for most chips. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

- Fine cracks across the glaze
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
Before you book anyone
- How long it needs to cure
- What prep work is covered
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send photos for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One picture of the whole basin
Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your GL18 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
When we’d advise against a repair
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Landlord and trade work in The Scarr
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Should you replace it?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Our sink repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
