Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Sink repair in Great Horton without replacing anything
Chipped, cracked and crazed basins and vanity units can be repaired, matching the colour and gloss. Nothing is taken off the wall. We work on Belfast and butler sinks, ceramic & vitreous china basins and enamelled basins, and people most frequently call us about damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and cracks around the tap holes or waste.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
How the visit works
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 few hours.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- Usually the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Ensure the area is dry
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice
Questions from Great Horton
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.
Are there extra charges for Great Horton?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Great Horton.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Great Horton included. Travel is included in the price.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Great Horton. What changes the price is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the whole basin
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

What a repair cannot fix
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- Through cracks that let water out
