Saughall questions
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Do you cover the entire of Cheshire West and Chester?
Across the UK, so Saughall is covered. Prices do not change with location.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Saughall as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
What we cannot put right
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Leaks from the fittings
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Related advice
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
When to call us in Saughall
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, which can crack it around the holes.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- An antique basin with chips
- A crazed, tired basin
- A crack near the taps
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools

What affects the price in Saughall
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Saughall. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
- How hard the colour is to match
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A photo taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
