What else we do in Osberton
What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Nottinghamshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Osberton use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

FAQs for Osberton
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
What happens after I send photos?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Repairing versus replacing in Osberton
Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
