Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Get chips repaired early
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Don’t overtighten taps
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.
What affects the price in Preston
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Preston. The price reflects:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Preston
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Preston use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
What we’re called out for in Preston
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, which can crack it around the holes.
Look out for these signs:
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- A chipped basin edge
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
What your quote should include
- How the colour is matched
- What aftercare is recommended
- How your room will be protected
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
What we do, step by step
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know about parking or access
Ask for a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
