Telford questions
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
How much does sink repair cost in Telford?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Get chips repaired early
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.
Should you replace it?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
