What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

What your basin is made of matters

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Common problems we fix in Poyle

A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.

  • An original basin worth saving
  • A crazed, tired basin
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • Knocks from hair straighteners

Before you book anyone

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

How to compare quotes

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Poyle. The price comes down to:

  • The type of damage
  • The material
  • Access to the area
  • How much damage there is

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Send photos for a quote

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

For landlords and businesses

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Slough and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best:

  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
