For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
The process
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a couple of hours for most chips, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Getting a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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.
Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Our sink repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
