Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Our sink repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Oakenshaw. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- A basin cracked through and leaking
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It normally takes a couple of hours for most chips, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Ask for a price
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

For anyone letting property in or around Oakenshaw, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Common questions in Oakenshaw
Can you repair a cracked basin?
In many cases. Send us pictures and we’ll tell you.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
What areas do you cover?
The whole UK, including all of Bradford. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.
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.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
