FAQs for Worcester
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your WR4 postcode.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Common problems we fix in Worcester
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.
Common reasons people in Worcester contact us include:
- An original basin worth saving
- A chipped vanity basin
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- Chips around the rim
What your quote should include
- What aftercare is recommended
- How the colour is matched
- What prep work is covered
- Who will actually do the work
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
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.
When we’d advise against a repair
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Worcester. The price comes down to:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Upload pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Worcester, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
What happens on the day
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a couple of hours for most chips. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- The basin can generally be used later that day or the following day.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Getting a price
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Related advice
Landlord and trade work in Worcester
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
