We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Sefton and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Southport questions
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
What affects the price in Southport
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Southport. What changes the price is:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.
Quotes from your photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire basin, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Repairing versus replacing in Southport
Replacing a basin frequently means a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. A repair keeps the basin you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why us?
- No extra charge for your area
- Everything repaired in place
- Most jobs done in one visit
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What we cannot put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- Leaks from the fittings
- A basin that moves on its brackets
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins

How it works
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Clear the area around the damage

Related advice
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Use mild cleaners only
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
