For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
Most clients in Broad Green get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Repairing versus replacing in Broad Green
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is typically the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is generally best. Our sink repair starts from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

FAQs for Broad Green
How do I get a price for sink repair in Broad Green?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Do you cover the whole of Shropshire?
Across the UK, and that includes Broad Green. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Repair chips before they stain
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Early repair keeps it a small job.

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a couple of hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
