For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Avoid abrasive pads
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Where you are, by postcode
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.
Jedburgh: your questions answered
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Surface cracks can typically be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
