A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Common questions in English Bicknor
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

How the visit works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- The basin can normally be used later that day or the following day.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Point us to the nearest place to park
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Advice
Why repair rather than replace?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Our sink repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Why book with us
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Generally one visit, start to finish
- One price list for the whole UK
- No need to remove anything

Landlord and trade work in English Bicknor
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Leaks from the fittings
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

How to care for the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Do not overtighten taps
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Get chips repaired early
- Use mild cleaners only
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
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.
