Common questions in Swineford
Will you remove the sink?
Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you cover the entire of South Gloucestershire?
We cover the entire UK, including Swineford and the rest of South Gloucestershire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Frequently. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
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.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
Honest limits
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- Plumbing leaks
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin that moves on its brackets
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the entire basin
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
