For landlords and businesses
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
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. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Your questions about sink repair in Barsby
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Is my repair covered?

Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Related advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.
When we would advise against a repair

How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
