Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Use gentle cleaners
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Questions from Minster Lovell
Do you come out to small places like Minster Lovell?
Yes, villages and hamlets are part of our area.
My house in Minster Lovell is a period property. Is the original worth keeping?
In most cases: original pieces are often better made and harder to replace. We will give you an honest view from pictures.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
How much does sink repair cost in Minster Lovell?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Oxfordshire.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
What a repair can’t fix
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Leaks from the fittings
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we repair
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
Common problems we fix in Minster Lovell
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, so chips are common. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.
Look out for any of the following:
- Crazing in the glaze
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- A chipped basin edge
- A crack near the taps
We also work for schools, leisure centres and businesses, so if you look after a building such as St Kenelm's Church of England (VC) School, toilets and washrooms can be repaired in place too.

Repairing versus replacing in Minster Lovell
Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. In an older home in a village like Minster Lovell, replacing a basin can be harder than it sounds: original pieces may not match modern sizes, and access can be awkward. A repair keeps the original.
Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why book with us
- Fixed prices from your photos
- Work done at your home or business
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Colour-matched on site

How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a couple of hours for most chips. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it. In a village or hamlet like Minster Lovell, access can be the only tricky part. Once we’re there, the sink repair works exactly as anywhere else.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- You can generally use the basin later that day or the next.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
How to get a price
Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your OX29 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
