Landlord and trade work in Cattistock
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Questions from Cattistock
How much does sink repair cost in Cattistock?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your DT2 postcode.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Normally, if it is not leaking. A crack that leaks right through usually means a new basin.
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Access to the area
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
- A picture taken from further back
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

The process
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Getting a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Our sink repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Why us?
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Colour-matched on site
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- One visit for most repairs
Read our prices page.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is 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.
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple:
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Don’t overtighten taps
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.
