Questions from Spon End
Do you cover the whole of Coventry?
The entire UK, including all of Coventry. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Often. Send us photos and we will tell you.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote, normally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire basin and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
The process
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Getting a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Landlord and trade work in Spon End
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
For anyone letting property in or around Spon End, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
Honest limits
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Get chips repaired early
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
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.
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.
