Materials and what they mean for the repair

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A picture taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a couple of hours for most chips, tidy-up included.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

How to get a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple:

  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Do not overtighten taps
  • Use mild cleaners only

Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

When we would advise against a repair

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

What we work on

  • Vanity unit basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Antique & period basins
  • Enamelled basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
