Banbury and the surrounding area

Banbury is about 23 miles south-west of Northampton, in Oxfordshire. From the centre of Banbury to the outlying streets, we offer exactly the same service: a fixed quote, a tidy visit and a guarantee. Banbury is one of 443 places in Oxfordshire we cover. We work right across the region, from Banbury to Birmingham (about 36 miles away).

Here we cover the OX16 and OX17 postcode area. That includes homes on High Street, Market Place and Grimsbury Square. Banbury sits on or near the A361 and A422, so getting to you is simple. We also travel to Neithrop (1 mile west), Ruscote (1 mile west), Grimsbury (1 mile east), Drayton (1 mile north-west) and Nethercote (2 miles east). Within a short drive, we also cover Bicester (14 miles south-east), Bure Park (13 miles south-east), Chipping Norton (12 miles south-west), Woodstock (15 miles south), Bloxham (3 miles south) and Charlbury (14 miles south-west).

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

When to call us in Banbury

Basins take knocks every day: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners chip the rim and front edge. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.

People typically call us after spotting one of these:

  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • A period basin that needs restoring

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How your room will be protected
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Who will actually do the work

How to compare quotes

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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.

Repair or replace in Banbury?

Finding the same basin again is not always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Our sink repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why Banbury clients choose us

  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Banbury questions

What does sink repair cost?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Do you disconnect the taps?

Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send pictures.

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

What we cannot put right

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

  • Antique & period basins
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Enamelled basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Upload photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Banbury, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It normally takes a few hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Ask for a price

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

How to look after the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.
