What happens on the day

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a couple of hours for most chips, including clearing up.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Ask for a price

Advice

When a repair is not the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Through cracks that let water out

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Enamelled basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins

Upper Affcot questions

What do you need from me?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

How do I get a price for sink repair in Upper Affcot?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, and that includes Upper Affcot. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is my repair covered?

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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, then guarantee it for a year.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals

Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Repairs by material

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Should you replace it?

Finding the same basin again is not always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • Chips on a built-in basin

Before you book anyone

Our hiring checklist

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Access to the area

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed price

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A wider photo showing the entire basin
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

There’s 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 reply with a fixed quote.
