When we’d advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair

Repairing versus replacing in Gendros
Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Gendros as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Repair chips before they stain
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
