What your basin is made of matters

Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Girlington
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Girlington questions
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Do you come to Girlington?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Girlington from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Honest limits
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Belfast and butler sinks

What happens on the day
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
How to look after the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Get chips repaired early
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
