About our sink repair in Chilton Foliat
Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. If you’re dealing with fine cracks across the glaze and a chipped basin edge, we can usually put it right, on vanity unit basins, Belfast and butler sinks and ceramic & vitreous china basins alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your pictures
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Landlord and trade work in Chilton Foliat
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.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- A chipped basin edge
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- An original basin worth saving
What your quote should include
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How soon you can use it again
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Chilton Foliat questions
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do you cover the entire of West Berkshire?
We cover the entire UK, including Chilton Foliat and the rest of West Berkshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.
How much does sink repair cost in Chilton Foliat?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Get chips repaired early
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.
How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a basin often means a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
