Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Use gentle cleaners
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Whitchurch-on-Thames. The price comes down to:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
If you’re in Whitchurch-on-Thames and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
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.
