Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Tolgullow
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tolgullow as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
What we can’t put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Plumbing leaks
- A basin cracked through and leaking
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Tolgullow. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A picture taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Natural light rather than flash
There is no need for us to visit first. 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.
