Common problems we fix in Preston
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, which can crack it around the holes.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- Chips on a built-in basin
- Cracks starting at the waste
- A period basin that needs restoring
Comparing quotes
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Aftercare advice
- How the colour is matched
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Get chips repaired early
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
The process
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a couple of hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- You can normally use the basin later that day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Preston: your questions answered
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Are there extra charges for Preston?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Preston?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Preston. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What a repair cannot fix
