How we handle sink repair in Four Ashes

A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. We fill, shape and polish the damage so it blends into the glaze. We work on vanity unit basins, enamelled basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and people most often call us about damage to a basin in a vanity unit and crazing in the glaze.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What affects the price in Four Ashes

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Four Ashes. The price comes down to:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the entire basin
  • The material, if you know it
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What happens on the day

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a couple of hours for most chips. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Open a window if you can
  • Make sure the area is dry

Ask for a price

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 we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

FAQs for Four Ashes

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of Buckinghamshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes, very frequently. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools

Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it doesn’t get chipped again.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
