Landlord and trade work in Mawnan Smith
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.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
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.
What happens on the day
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Our sink repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. 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.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
