Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Devon and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
If you manage property in Smeatharpe, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Widespread crazing
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

How it works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
