Why repair rather than replace?
A basin is usually fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Our sink repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Your questions about sink repair in New Oscott
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
In many cases. Send us pictures and we’ll tell you.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Are there extra charges for New Oscott?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
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 the visit works
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a couple of hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Open a window if you can

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A picture taken from further back
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
