DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Common questions in Shenleybury
What areas do you cover?
All of Hertfordshire, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Can you price it without visiting?
Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Do you work in Shenleybury?
We do. We send a technician to Shenleybury for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Are there extra charges for Shenleybury?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Through cracks that let water out
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
Do you need sink repair in Shenleybury?
Basins take knocks every day: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners chip the rim and front edge. Cracks frequently start around the taps and waste.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Chips on a built-in basin
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- A chipped basin edge
- An original basin worth saving

What affects the price in Shenleybury
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
- Unusual colours or finishes
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.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

What happens on the day
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- 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.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- Usually the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Why repair rather than replace?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
