The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- The basin can typically be used later that day or the following day.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Can I fix it myself?
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, a professional repair is worth it.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Get chips repaired early
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
What affects the price in Wistow
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A photo taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Most clients in Wistow get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Landlord and trade work in Wistow
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. A repair keeps the basin you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
What you get with us
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
