Work for landlords and builders
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Questions from Swiss Valley
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
Do you come to Swiss Valley?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Swiss Valley. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you price it without visiting?
Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Frequently. Send us photos and we’ll tell you.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Should you replace it?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is typically best. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Do you need sink repair in Swiss Valley?
Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.
People normally call us after spotting something like this:
- Chips on a built-in basin
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- A crazed, tired basin
- An antique basin with chips
What your quote should include
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Who turns up on the day
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. 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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.
Honest limits
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- Through cracks that let water out
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Use mild cleaners only
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material and finish
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
What happens on the day
Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a couple of hours for most chips, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- You can usually use the basin later that day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Ensure the area is dry
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
