Why repair rather than replace?
A new basin often means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. A repair keeps the basin you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why us?
- Work done at your home or business
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Colour-matched on site
- One price list for the entire UK

When we would advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Through cracks that let water out
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

What else we do in Chartridge
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Chartridge. The price depends on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the whole basin
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Chartridge, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Chartridge: your questions answered
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Can you price it without visiting?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Do you cover the whole of Buckinghamshire?
We cover the entire UK, including Chartridge and the rest of Buckinghamshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Use gentle cleaners
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
