Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around Cock Alley, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What else we do in Cock Alley
How the visit works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a couple of hours for most chips. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Open a window if you can
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

FAQs for Cock Alley
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Surface cracks can typically be repaired. A crack that leaks right through generally means a new basin.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Derbyshire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff:
- Get chips repaired early
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
Repairing versus replacing in Cock Alley
Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Our sink repair starts from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Cock Alley. The price reflects:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Cock Alley. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the whole basin
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
For a price in Cock Alley, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Do you need sink repair in Cock Alley?
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, so chips are common. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A crack near the taps
- A period basin that needs restoring
- A chipped vanity basin
- Crazing in the glaze
