Quotes from your pictures
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Natural light rather than flash
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Do not overtighten taps
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Questions from Wrecclesham
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Landlord and trade work in Wrecclesham
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
Why repair rather than replace?
Finding the same basin again is not always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
