How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a couple of hours for most chips for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Do not overtighten taps
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools

Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Period and antique

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Landlord and trade work in Moorend

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Moorend. What changes the price is:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the entire basin

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Common questions in Moorend

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can you repair a cracked basin?

Surface cracks can typically be repaired. A crack that leaks right through normally means a new basin.

How much does sink repair cost in Moorend?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your BS16 postcode.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across South Gloucestershire.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Leaks from the fittings

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
