Saltash: your questions answered
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do you cover Saltash?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Saltash from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Are there extra charges for Saltash?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Surface cracks can generally be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
How we handle sink repair in Saltash
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. We fill, shape and polish the damage so it blends into the glaze. We work on vanity unit basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and the jobs we see most are an antique basin with chips and chips from dropped toiletries.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Repairs by material
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
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.
Landlord and trade work in Saltash
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Saltash. What changes the price is:
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the photos on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A photo taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Get chips repaired early
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
Do not 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 it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
