Fern is about 2 miles north-east of Marlow, in Buckinghamshire. From the centre of Fern to the outlying streets, we offer exactly the same service: fixed prices, tidy work and a one-year guarantee. Fern is one of 263 places in Buckinghamshire we cover. We work right across the region, from Fern to London (28 miles away).
Our visits in SL7 are booked in the same way as anywhere else.

We also work in nearby towns such as High Wycombe (3 miles north), Chesham (10 miles north-east), Amersham (8 miles north-east), Beaconsfield (4 miles east), Chalfont St Peter (8 miles east) and Southcourt (15 miles north).

Do you need sink repair in Fern?
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, which can crack it around the holes.
Look out for these signs:
- An original basin worth saving
- Chips around the rim
- Crazing in the glaze
- A crack near the taps
What your quote should include
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

- What aftercare is recommended
- What happens if they find more damage
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Honest limits
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Widespread crazing
- Through cracks that let water out
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Common questions in Fern
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
In many cases. Send us photos and we will tell you.
Do you work in Fern?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Fern. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
How to care for the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Repair chips before they stain
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Landlord and trade work in Fern
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Buckinghamshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Fern. The price depends on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
There are no surprise 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.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the whole basin
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
How to get a price
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
Related advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
A basin is typically fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
