- The basin can normally be used later that day or the next day.

Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Longford as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Common problems we fix in Longford
Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped, from glass bottles to hairdryers. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- A chipped basin edge
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste

Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Get chips repaired early
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Longford questions
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Typically, if it is not leaking. A crack that leaks right through usually means a new basin.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
How do I book?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
Should you replace it?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why us?
- One visit for most repairs
- No need to remove anything
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- One price list for the entire UK

What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- The material
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Doing more than one item at once
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send photos for a quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
What we can’t put right
We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Through cracks that let water out
- Widespread crazing
- Leaks from the fittings
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
