What happens on the day
Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a few hours in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- Normally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Details of any past repairs
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the entire basin
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Ashampstead
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Oxfordshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
