FAQs for Poundon
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
How much does sink repair cost in Poundon?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your OX27 postcode.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire basin and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you come to Poundon?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Poundon from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Poundon. The price reflects:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed price
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Repairing versus replacing in Poundon
Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Our sink repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Work done at your home or business

Repairs by material
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- Plumbing leaks
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we work on in Poundon

- Vanity unit basins
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Use gentle cleaners
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
