For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Leaks from the fittings
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A crack that leaks right through the basin

Why repair rather than replace?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is usually the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is typically best. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why book with us
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How much damage there is
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material and finish
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the photos on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Where you are, by postcode
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
How the visit works
The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours for most chips. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- You can usually use the basin later that day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Getting a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Repair chips before they stain
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
