Landlord and trade work in Lewes
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 regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Sink repair in Lewes, done in place
When a basin is worn or crazed all over, it can be resurfaced in place, giving it an even new finish. We work on antique & period basins, vanity unit basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and people most frequently call us about damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and an antique basin with chips.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Lewes questions
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across East Sussex.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
What happens on the day
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know about parking or access
- Open a window if you can

Repairing versus replacing in Lewes
Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, especially in a matching suite. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Why us?
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- Colour-matched on site
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. 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 pictures.
Repairs by material
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
What a repair can’t fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Plumbing leaks
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

About Lewes
Lewes is about 7 miles north-east of Brighton, in East Sussex. Our technicians come to clients in Lewes and the surrounding area, so there is no workshop to go to. Lewes is one of 289 towns and villages in East Sussex we cover. We work right across the region, from Lewes to London (about 43 miles away).
We cover every part of the BN7, BN8, BN6 and RH15 postcode area. That includes homes on Market Lane, Market Street and High Street and the roads around them. You’ll find Lewes on the A26 and A275, so it’s easy for us to reach. If you’re just outside Lewes, we cover South Malling (1 mile north-east), Southover (1 mile south-east), Cliffe (1 mile east), Offham (1 mile north-west) and Hamsey (1 mile north). Further out, we also cover Eastbourne (14 miles south-east), Seaford (8 miles south-east), Hailsham (11 miles east), Crowborough (14 miles north-east), Uckfield (8 miles north-east) and Newhaven (6 miles south). Being one of East Sussex’s larger places, Lewes is somewhere we visit frequently.
Local landmarks in Lewes
We visit homes around Priory School, Railway Land and Elephant and Castle pub, among other places. Other local landmarks include Church of St John sub Castro (under half a mile east), St Pancras Catholic Primary School (less than half a mile south-west) and Lewes Old Grammar School (less than half a mile south). For rail, the closest station is Lewes station, roughly 0.6 miles south-east of the centre. Other landmarks nearby include Lewes Castle (less than half a mile south) and St John under the Castle Lewes (under half a mile north). For a walk, there’s Offham Hill and Malling Down.
Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
Common problems we fix in Lewes
Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped, from glass bottles to hairdryers. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.
Most people contact us after spotting one of these:
- An original basin worth saving
- Chips around the rim
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
