Landlord and trade work in Overpool
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Related advice
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

When we would advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Leaks from the fittings
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Antique & period basins

Common questions in Overpool
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your CH66 postcode.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
