Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge

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

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Sink repair in Yattendon, done in place

From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, basin damage is usually repaired in place. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. Common call-outs are for a period basin that needs restoring and damage from dropped bottles or hair tools, across antique & period basins, vanity unit basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How much damage there is

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed price

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • One picture of the whole basin
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What we cannot put right

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

The process

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

10 questions to ask before booking

Your questions about sink repair in Yattendon

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Are there extra charges for Yattendon?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes, very frequently. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

Can you repair a cracked basin?

Usually, if it is not leaking. A crack that leaks right through typically means a new basin.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Do you come to Yattendon?

We do. We send a technician to Yattendon for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Landlord and trade work in Yattendon

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
