Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

About our sink repair in Woosehill

From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. We regularly repair enamelled basins, vanity unit basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and people most often call us about knocks from hair straighteners and a period basin that needs restoring.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Wokingham.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

For anyone letting property in or around Woosehill, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals

Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Questions from Woosehill

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Woosehill.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

What we cannot put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Leaks from the fittings

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Woosehill

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

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Doing more than one item at once

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
