Common questions in Wigston Fields
What areas do you cover?
All of Leicester, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What a repair can’t fix
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Leaks from the fittings
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Do you need sink repair in Wigston Fields?
Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, which can crack it around the holes.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Chips around the rim
- An original basin worth saving
- A crazed, tired basin
- A chipped vanity basin
What your quote should include
- How to look after the finish
- What prep work is covered

- If travel is included in the price
How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Use mild cleaners only
- Get chips repaired early
- Do not overtighten taps
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. 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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
