- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Johnson's Hillock. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Questions from Johnson's Hillock
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Often. Send us pictures and we will tell you.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do you disconnect the taps?
Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Our sink repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why us?
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Colour-matched on site
- Same prices wherever you are
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish

How to look after the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Use gentle cleaners
- Repair chips before they stain
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, 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.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
