Questions from Shenton
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
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.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
About our sink repair in Shenton
We match the glaze as well as the colour. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. Our repair technicians work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, antique & period basins and enamelled basins, and common reasons people get in touch are chips on a built-in basin and fine cracks across the glaze.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
Why repair rather than replace?
Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, 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.
Why us?
- No need to remove anything
- Same prices wherever you are
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Around Shenton

The process
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- Usually the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Getting a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Repair chips before they stain
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Leicestershire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Send photos for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Most clients in Shenton get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
