What we’re called out for in Middleton
Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- Chips on a built-in basin
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Cracks starting at the waste
Before you book anyone
- What preparation is included
- If travel is included in the price
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Aftercare advice
The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
How to get a price
Upload pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your LE16 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Advice
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Use mild cleaners only
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Common questions in Middleton
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Northamptonshire.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do you cover Middleton?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Middleton. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
What affects the price in Middleton
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Natural light rather than flash
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Details of any past repairs
For a price in Middleton, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Landlord and trade work in Middleton
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Repairs by material
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Repairing versus replacing in Middleton
A basin is typically fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
