What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
Composite and resin

Common questions in Walesby
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
Do you cover the entire of Nottinghamshire?
All of Nottinghamshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 will not last.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Common problems we fix in Walesby
Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, which can crack it around the holes.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A chipped vanity basin
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- A crazed, tired basin

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Walesby. The price comes down to:
- How much damage there is
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Use gentle cleaners
- Repair chips before they stain
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
When we’d advise against a repair
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
