Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Repair chips before they stain
- Use mild cleaners only
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A photo taken from further back
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s 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 photos, as it can add time.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
