Are you accredited?

Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Do not overtighten taps
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Have new chips repaired quickly
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Repair or replace in Upper Stondon?
Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Our sink repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Upper Stondon. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. 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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
