Landlords, agents and businesses in Aldersbrook
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Greater London and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Aldersbrook use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Get chips repaired early
- Use gentle cleaners
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Use mild cleaners only
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Common problems we fix in Aldersbrook
Fine crazing in the glaze is typically down to age, and strong chemicals speed it up.

- Cracks starting at the waste

- An antique basin with chips
- Knocks from hair straighteners

Why repair rather than replace?
A basin is normally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Our sink repair starts from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Aldersbrook. The price comes down to:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A photo taken from further back
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
If you are in Aldersbrook and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. The room is left tidy.
- 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.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- Typically the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
How to prepare
- Make sure the area is dry
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
