Landlord and trade work in Paulsgrove
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Portsmouth and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Paulsgrove. The price comes down to:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Most clients in Paulsgrove get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Paulsgrove questions
Will you remove the sink?
No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, so Paulsgrove is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
The process
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
Related advice
What a repair cannot fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin that moves on its brackets
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
Common problems we fix in Paulsgrove
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, and cracks can start at the tap holes.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A chipped vanity basin
- Crazing in the glaze
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- A chipped basin edge
