Colton Lane End questions
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Do you disconnect the taps?
Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
What happens after I send photos?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.
For landlords and businesses
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
When a repair is not the answer
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Plumbing leaks
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we work on in Colton Lane End

DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
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 typically cheaper.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
When to call us in Colton Lane End
Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and strong chemicals speed it up.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- A crazed, tired basin
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- An original basin worth saving
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
