West Bagborough questions
Can you repair a cracked basin?
In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed price
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
Landlord and trade work in West Bagborough
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Somerset and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

How to care for the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Use gentle cleaners
- Get chips repaired early
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes a couple of hours for most chips, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price

Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
