We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Innsworth as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- One picture of the whole basin
- Where you are, by postcode
For a price in Innsworth, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Innsworth questions
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Surface cracks can typically be repaired. A crack that leaks right through normally means a new basin.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What happens next?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Gloucestershire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Do you cover Innsworth?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Innsworth from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
The process
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, including clearing up.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Repair chips before they stain
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
