Landlord and trade work in Hammersmith
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hammersmith as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Questions from Hammersmith
Do you come to Hammersmith?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Hammersmith and the rest of Derbyshire. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do you need sink repair in Hammersmith?
Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners chip the rim and front edge. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- Chips on a built-in basin
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- An original basin worth saving
Comparing quotes
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- How to care for the finish
- How soon you can use it again
- How the colour is matched
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Use mild cleaners only
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
