For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
For anyone letting property in or around East Shefford, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
What happens on the day
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a couple of hours for most chips, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Questions from East Shefford
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Usually, if it is not leaking. A crack that leaks right through normally means a new basin.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do you come to East Shefford?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to East Shefford. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole basin and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
What we cannot put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Through cracks that let water out
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in East Shefford
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Do not overtighten taps
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
