Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in West Berkshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Do not overtighten taps
- Use gentle cleaners
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Different materials, different repairs
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.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
What happens on the day
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a couple of hours for most chips, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
How to get a price
Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Leckhampstead, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

FAQs for Leckhampstead

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Leckhampstead.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Leckhampstead. What changes the price is:
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the whole basin
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
What a repair can’t fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A basin cracked through and leaking
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
Repair or replace: which is better?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is generally best. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
