Can I fix it myself?
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Roe Green questions
Will you remove the sink?
No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Roe Green.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You will get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
What information do you need?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
When to call us in Roe Green
Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners catch the front edge and rim. Cracks frequently start around the taps and waste.
Most people contact us when they notice something like this:
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- A chipped vanity basin
- An antique basin with chips
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
Before you book anyone
- What aftercare is recommended
- What happens if they find more damage
- If travel is included in the price
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
When a repair is not the answer
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins

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, with colour mixed on site.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Salford and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Don’t overtighten taps
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
What else we do in Roe Green
How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- 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 it into the surrounding surface.
- Typically the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
