Work for landlords and builders
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the entire basin
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

What happens on the day
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a couple of hours for most chips, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Related advice
When we would advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Widespread crazing
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Don’t overtighten taps
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 normally cheaper.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
