What else we do in Hinton St Mary
What affects the price in Hinton St Mary
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Hinton St Mary. The price depends on:
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Details of any past repairs
- Any details about the material
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
What we cannot put right

- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Plumbing leaks
- A basin that moves on its brackets
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins

Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
