What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- You can normally use the basin later that day or the next.

When we’d advise against a repair

- Widespread crazing
- Leaks from the fittings
- A crack that leaks right through the basin

Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Use mild cleaners only
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Why repair rather than replace?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

FAQs for Oakbank
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Surface cracks can normally be repaired. A crack that leaks right through generally means a new basin.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, so Oakbank is covered. Prices do not change with location.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
