Landlords, agents and businesses in Malpas
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Malpas: your questions answered
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes, very often. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Malpas. The price comes down to:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the whole basin
- Something in shot to show the size
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
How to look after the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Repair chips before they stain
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
What we’re called out for in Malpas
Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, along with damage during fitting.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- A chipped basin edge
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- A chipped vanity basin
Questions to ask before booking
- How long it needs to cure
- Who turns up on the day
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- If travel is included in the price
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Advice
What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
