Landlords, agents and businesses in Rookley Green
If you manage property in Rookley Green, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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, a professional repair is worth it.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
FAQs for Rookley Green

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, very frequently. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
A few things move the price: 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.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Where you are, by postcode
- The material, if you know it
- Something in shot to show the size
- A picture taken from further back
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
When we’d advise against a repair
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Widespread crazing
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we work on in Rookley Green
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins

- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- Usually the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Why repair rather than replace?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is typically best. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
