For landlords and businesses
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What we do, step by step
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which generally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing 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.
- You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
How to get a price
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can price the job without visiting.

Common questions in Sampford Chapple
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Do you cover Sampford Chapple?
We do. We send a technician to Sampford Chapple for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
