Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
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.
Sink repair in Henley without replacing anything
Period basins are worth keeping, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. We work on Belfast and butler sinks, antique & period basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and people most frequently call us about cracks around the tap holes or waste and chips from dropped toiletries.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Questions from Henley
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What areas do you cover?
All of Somerset, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
What do you need from me?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
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.
How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Henley. The price comes down to:
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

How it works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Make sure the area is dry
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
