Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

How much does sink repair cost in Datchet?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Do you work in Datchet?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Datchet and the rest of Slough. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Sink repair in Datchet, done in place

Period basins are worth keeping, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. Common call-outs are for an original basin worth saving and a crack near the taps, in enamelled basins, Belfast and butler sinks and vanity unit basins.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Datchet

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.

For anyone letting property in or around Datchet, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Do you need sink repair in Datchet?

Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • Chips around the rim
  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Who turns up on the day
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

10 questions to ask before you book

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

What a repair can’t fix

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • Plumbing leaks
  • Widespread crazing
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

Repair or replace in Datchet?

Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Repairs by material

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Datchet. The price comes down to:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many items we do on one visit

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Send photos for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Any details about the material

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 reply with a fixed quote.

What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. The basin can usually be used later that day or the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price
