For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Staffordshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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.

How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Use gentle cleaners
- Get chips repaired early
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
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.
What we cannot put right
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Plumbing leaks
- Widespread crazing
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
What happens on the day
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It generally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- Typically the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Open a window if you can

Advice
Westwood: your questions answered
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, very often. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What we are called out for in Westwood
Fine crazing in the glaze is usually down to age, and strong chemicals speed it up.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- An antique basin with chips
- Chips around the rim
- A crazed, tired basin
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
Comparing quotes
- When it can be used again
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A photo taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Most clients in Westwood get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
