How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a couple of hours for most chips in most cases. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. Typically the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

Advice

What we cannot put right

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Plumbing leaks
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

  • Antique & period basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Enamelled basins
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks

Repairing versus replacing in Tickleback Row

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is normally the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is normally best. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Tickleback Row. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

Signs you need sink repair in Tickleback Row

Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, and cracks can start at the tap holes.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Chips around the rim
  • A crazed, tired basin
  • An original basin worth saving
  • Chips from dropped toiletries

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

10 questions to ask before you book

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Common questions in Tickleback Row

What does sink repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your RG42 postcode.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Bracknell Forest.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
