DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

What affects the price in Woodhall

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Woodhall questions

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.

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

Do you work in Woodhall?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Woodhall and the rest of North Yorkshire. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

What we cannot put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A basin that moves on its brackets

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

  • Vanity unit basins
  • Antique & period basins
  • Enamelled basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a basin often means a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. A repair leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why book with us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a couple of hours for most chips. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. The basin can usually be used later that day or the day after.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear the area around the damage
