Repair or replace: which is better?

Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The material, if you know it

Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your OX17 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What a repair cannot fix

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Advice

Landlord and trade work in Great Bourton

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Common problems we fix in Great Bourton

Basins take knocks every day: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners chip the rim and front edge. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • A chipped basin edge
  • A chipped vanity basin
  • Fine cracks across the glaze

Comparing quotes

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What prep work is covered
  • If travel is included in the price

FAQs for Great Bourton

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Do you disconnect the taps?

No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

How much does sink repair cost in Great Bourton?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your OX17 postcode.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
