For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Sink repair in Aimes Green without replacing anything
Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. We regularly repair ceramic & vitreous china basins, Belfast and butler sinks and antique & period basins, and the jobs we see most are a chipped basin edge and an original basin worth saving.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Aimes Green questions
Can you quote from photos?
Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Do you cover the whole of Essex?
The whole UK, including all of Essex. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
What information do you need?

When a repair is not the answer
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Aimes Green. The price depends on:
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Send pictures for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A photo taken from further back
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Repairs by material
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
