Landlords, agents and businesses in Oxley

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Oxley use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Related advice

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Questions from Oxley

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Typically, if it is not leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

What does sink repair cost?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.

Will you leave a mess?

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

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Have new chips repaired quickly

Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

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.

Repair or replace in Oxley?

A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is normally best. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Oxley. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What a repair can’t fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
