Lower Slaughter: your questions answered
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Are there extra charges for Lower Slaughter?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How we handle sink repair in Lower Slaughter
Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. If you’re dealing with cracks around the tap holes or waste and chips around the rim, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. 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 them sympathetically.

What happens on the day
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- You can normally use the basin later that day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know about parking or access
- Open a window if you can
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
