Landlords, agents and businesses in South Petherwin
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A basin is typically fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Our sink repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
What you get with us
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Nothing taken out or refitted

What else we do in South Petherwin
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
- A picture taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Honest limits
We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
