The process

- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Before we arrive

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lea
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Herefordshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Lea questions
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.
Are there extra charges for Lea?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Normally, if it is not leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, and that includes Lea. Prices do not change with location.

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
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.

How to care for the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Use gentle cleaners
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
