Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
What we are called out for in Ashley
Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, along with damage during fitting.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Cracks starting at the waste
- Chips around the rim

What your basin is made of matters

Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.

- Widespread crazing
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice
Ashley: your questions answered
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Ashley included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Normally, if it isn’t leaking. A crack that leaks right through usually means a new basin.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Most customers in Ashley get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
