What your basin is made of matters

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

What we are called out for in Hughenden Valley

Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners catch the front edge and rim. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.

Look out for these signs:

  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • A crack near the taps
  • Chips on the rim or front edge

Landlords with property near High Wycombe station (about 2.5 miles south) use us between tenancies, so basins are repaired rather than replaced.

What your quote should include

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How the colour is matched

Choosing a repair company

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals

Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

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

What a repair can’t fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Plumbing leaks
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured. Somewhere like Hughenden Valley needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives or where to park. We bring everything needed for the sink repair, so there is no second trip.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Clear the area around the damage

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

Surface cracks can generally be repaired. A crack that leaks right through generally means a new basin.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Should you replace it?

A basin is normally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. For a rural home like those around Hughenden Valley, a replacement means trades travelling out and waste being taken away, while sink repair is one trip.
