Landlord and trade work in Clifton
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Clifton as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
What your basin is made of matters
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.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
How the visit works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Do not overtighten taps
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Use gentle cleaners
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Clifton: your questions answered
How much does sink repair cost in Clifton?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
In many cases. Send us photos and we’ll tell you.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
What affects the price in Clifton
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Clifton. The price comes down to:
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Clifton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
