Bishop's Castle: your questions answered
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Usually, if it isn’t leaking. A crack that leaks right through typically means a new basin.
Sink repair at your home in Bishop's Castle
When a basin is worn or crazed all over, it can be resurfaced in place, for a fresh, even finish. We work on vanity unit basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and enamelled basins, and people most often call us about a chipped vanity basin and a crazed, tired basin.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 frequently lifts.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Do you need sink repair in Bishop's Castle?
Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and strong chemicals speed it up.

- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit

- A period basin that needs restoring
- A crazed, tired basin
Before you book anyone
- What happens if they find more damage

Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.

What affects the price in Bishop's Castle
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Access to the area
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Getting a price from pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- One picture of the entire basin
- Any details about the material
Email us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Bishop's Castle, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Why repair rather than replace?
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. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
