Common questions in Ipsden
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire basin and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Ipsden?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Oxfordshire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
What a repair cannot fix
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Leaks from the fittings
- Through cracks that let water out
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we repair
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Ipsden
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
What we are called out for in Ipsden
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, which can crack it around the holes.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- A period basin that needs restoring
- A chipped vanity basin
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
