Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
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.

Questions from Malinslee
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Do you come to Malinslee?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Malinslee for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the entire UK, including Malinslee and the rest of Telford and Wrekin. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Will you remove the sink?
No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Repairing versus replacing in Malinslee
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is usually best. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What we can’t put right

Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Malinslee. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
