FAQs for Wanshurst Green
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
What information do you need?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Usually, if it is not leaking. A crack that leaks right through typically means a new basin.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
When to call us in Wanshurst Green
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, so chips are common. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- An antique basin with chips
- A crack near the taps
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- Fine cracks across the glaze
What your quote should include
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Who turns up on the day
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- Whether they match the colour on site

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One picture of the entire basin
- What it’s made of, if you know
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Repairing versus replacing in Wanshurst Green
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It typically takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- You can usually use the basin later that day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Get chips repaired early
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not 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.
