Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Trafford and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Do not overtighten taps
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Clear the area around the damage
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
Getting a price
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
What we are called out for in Flixton
Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, along with damage during fitting.

What affects the price in Flixton
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Flixton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Where you are, by postcode
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
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 usually the cheaper route.
Questions from Flixton
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Flixton.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Surface cracks can usually be repaired. A crack that leaks right through normally means a new basin.
