What else we do in Lambourn Woodlands
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Use gentle cleaners
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Repairing versus replacing in Lambourn Woodlands
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is generally best. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Questions from Lambourn Woodlands
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Do you cover the entire of West Berkshire?
All of West Berkshire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Often. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
What we can’t put right
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Widespread crazing
- Plumbing leaks
- Through cracks that let water out
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
