Should you replace it?

Choosing a repair company

Repairs by material

Period and antique

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

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.

What we cannot put right

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Widespread crazing

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

How the visit works

Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. The basin can normally be used later that day or the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Advice

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send photos for a quote

Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:

  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the entire basin
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Questions from High Cogges

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Oxfordshire.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Do you come to High Cogges?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to High Cogges. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

Often. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
