Sink repair in Ditton without replacing anything

We repair chips, cracks and crazing in ceramic basins and vanity units, matching the colour and gloss. Nothing is taken off the wall. If you’re dealing with crazing in the glaze and cracks around the tap holes or waste, we can typically put it right.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Related advice

Why repair rather than replace?

A basin is typically fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Our sink repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Slough and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

How to look after the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The colour and finish to match

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs

Most clients in Ditton get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Ditton questions

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

What does sink repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Do you need sink repair in Ditton?

A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • A chipped basin edge
  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • A crazed, tired basin
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste

Before you book anyone

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How your room will be protected
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
