Edgton: your questions answered
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, very frequently. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Repair or replace: which is better?

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Edgton. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Advice
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Honest limits
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Leaks from the fittings
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Through cracks that let water out
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Edgton
- Vanity unit basins

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Edgton. What changes the price is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
- The material
- The colour and finish to match
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A photo taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, and the work is guaranteed.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
When to call us in Edgton
Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, and cracks can start at the tap holes.
