Repairs by material

Period and antique

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

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Sink repair in Launton without replacing anything

If the entire basin is crazed or worn, we can resurface it in place, for a fresh, even finish. Typical jobs include an antique basin with chips and a chipped vanity basin, on Belfast and butler sinks, vanity unit basins and antique & period basins.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Launton and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

What a repair cannot fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Launton questions

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Oxfordshire.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

Generally, if it isn’t leaking. A crack that leaks right through generally means a new basin.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Repair or replace: which is better?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is normally the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is usually best. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Launton

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

If you manage property in Launton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

What we do, step by step

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a couple of hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Choosing a repair company

How to care for the repair

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Have new chips repaired quickly

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.
