Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. A repair leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Smallford questions
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send photos.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Do you cover the entire of Hertfordshire?
We cover the entire UK, including Smallford and the rest of Hertfordshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
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.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Repairs by material
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.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know about parking or access
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
When a repair is not the answer
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Widespread crazing
- Leaks from the fittings
- A basin that moves on its brackets
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send photos for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
