How we handle sink repair in Ashlett
Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. We work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, Belfast and butler sinks and enamelled basins, and the jobs we see most are a chipped basin edge and fine cracks across the glaze.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Ashlett
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ashlett as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Ashlett questions
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Frequently. Send us pictures and we’ll tell you.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
What areas do you cover?
All of Hampshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Ashlett?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

What we cannot put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

How the visit works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- The basin can generally be used later that day or the day after.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
How to get a price
For most jobs, pictures 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.
Advice
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Common problems we fix in Ashlett
Fine crazing in the glaze is typically down to age, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Chips on a built-in basin
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- An original basin worth saving
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
What your quote should include
- What happens if they find more damage
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How the colour is matched
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from photos
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire basin, we can give you a fixed price.
How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Use mild cleaners only
- Repair chips before they stain
- Don’t overtighten taps
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
