Landlords, agents and businesses in Longdon
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Gloucestershire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Sink repair in Longdon, done in place
From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, basin damage is normally repaired in place. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. We regularly repair vanity unit basins, Belfast and butler sinks and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and common reasons people contact us are a chipped vanity basin and knocks from hair straighteners.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Longdon and across Gloucestershire.

The process
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Clear the area around the damage

Other services in Longdon
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. 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 pictures.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A photo taken from further back
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.
Should you replace it?
Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Common problems we fix in Longdon
Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.
The things clients generally mention when they call are:
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- Chips around the rim
What to look for in a quote
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How your room will be protected
- How the colour is matched
- What prep work is covered
Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
What a repair cannot fix
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- Leaks from the fittings
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin cracked through and leaking
