Work for landlords and builders
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.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
What we cannot put right
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Through cracks that let water out
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
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 generally the cheaper route.
How the visit works
You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It normally takes a couple of hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- The basin can normally be used later that day or the next day.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Bogside questions
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Will you remove the sink?
No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, very frequently. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
What affects the price in Bogside
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- What it’s made of, if you know
For a price in Bogside, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Should you replace it?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is normally best. Prices start from £95. 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 us?

- We leave the room as we found it
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Repair chips before they stain
- Avoid abrasive pads
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
