Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Other services in Tile Hurst
Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- The type of damage
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
When to call us in Tile Hurst
Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: bottles, hair straighteners and razors catch the front edge and rim. Cracks often start around the taps and waste.
Clients generally contact us about:
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- An antique basin with chips
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- Chips around the rim
If you let a flat or house near Polegate station (about 3.4 miles south), we repair basins between tenancies so it’s ready to let again quickly.

- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- We match the colour by hand.

Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Repair chips before they stain
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
