What affects the price in Tullos
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Access to the area
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. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- One picture of the entire basin
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
How we handle sink repair in Tullos
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage so it blends into the glaze. We work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, antique & period basins and enamelled basins, and common reasons people contact us are chips from dropped toiletries and chips on the rim or front edge.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Common problems we fix in Tullos
Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners catch the front edge and rim. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- A chipped basin edge
- Chips from dropped toiletries

How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Use gentle cleaners
- Get chips repaired early
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Repairs by material
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Tullos questions
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Surface cracks can typically be repaired. A crack that leaks right through normally means a new basin.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Tullos included. Travel is included in the price.

- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- The basin can usually be used later that day or the day after.
