What else we do in Tingrith
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Repair chips before they stain
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
What affects the price in Tingrith
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the whole basin
- Something in shot to show the size
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Will you remove the sink?
No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tingrith use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
How it works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a couple of hours for most chips.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- Typically the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Related advice
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Widespread crazing
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
