Your questions about sink repair in Cowley
How do I get a price for sink repair in Cowley?
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.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- The basin can typically be used later that day or the following day.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know about parking or access

Advice
Landlord and trade work in Cowley
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cowley use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
Repair or replace: which is better?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Our sink repair starts from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Cowley. The price reflects:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send pictures for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the entire basin
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed 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, and the work is guaranteed.

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:

- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
