- Chips on the rim or front edge
- Crazing in the glaze

What to look for in a quote
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers

Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Preston on Wye questions
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Do you come to Preston on Wye?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Preston on Wye from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Will you remove the sink?
No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Preston on Wye
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Preston on Wye use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is usually best. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What a repair cannot fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- Through cracks that let water out
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
