How we handle sink repair in Long Crendon
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. Repairs are polished to the same shine. We’re often asked to fix chips on the rim or front edge and knocks from hair straighteners, in vanity unit basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and Belfast and butler sinks.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Questions from Long Crendon
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Do you work in Long Crendon?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Long Crendon and the rest of Buckinghamshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
When to call us in Long Crendon
Most chips come from something dropped into the bowl, along with damage during fitting.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Crazing in the glaze
- A chipped basin edge
- A chipped vanity basin
- Cracks starting at the waste
What your quote should include
- Whether the price covers travel
- When it can be used again
- What prep work is covered
- What aftercare is recommended
Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Use mild cleaners only
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
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.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

How the visit works
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Long Crendon as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
