- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Widespread crazing
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Get chips repaired early
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
FAQs for Tongwell
Are there extra charges for Tongwell?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
What do you need from me?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, very frequently. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.
For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Repairing versus replacing in Tongwell
Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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.

Can I fix it myself?
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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
