Landlord and trade work in Compton Bassett
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Sink repair at your home in Compton Bassett
From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. Nothing is unplumbed or taken off the wall. We work on antique & period basins, vanity unit basins and enamelled basins, and the jobs we see most are an original basin worth saving and chips on the rim or front edge.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Common questions in Compton Bassett
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote, typically with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Often. Send us pictures and we’ll tell you.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
What we can’t put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Leaks from the fittings
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Repair or replace in Compton Bassett?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Our sink repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
