Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

When we would advise against a repair
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin that moves on its brackets
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Common questions in Mickle Trafford
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Often. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
What we do, step by step
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- You can normally use the basin later that day or the next.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
