FAQs for Hoo
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed price, normally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Repairing versus replacing in Hoo
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Prices start 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 play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why us?
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- One price list for the whole UK
- Colour-matched on site
See our prices page.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
- How many items we do on one visit
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A photo taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
We price from pictures so you do not 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, and you will get a fixed figure back.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
Landlord and trade work in Hoo
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Use mild cleaners only
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
