For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
How to care for the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Get chips repaired early
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.

Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: bottles, hair straighteners and razors chip the rim and front edge. Cracks often start around the taps and waste.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- A chipped basin edge
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools

Wanstrow: your questions answered
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
What happens next?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.
Do you come to Wanstrow?
We do. We send a technician to Wanstrow for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Why us?
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Every repair guaranteed for a year

- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
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 pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- Something in shot to show the size
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
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.
What happens on the day
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours in most cases. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- You can normally use the basin later that day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
