Repairing versus replacing in Oakfield
Replacing a basin often means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Why us?
- Most jobs done in one visit
- We leave the room as we found it
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Free fixed quotes from pictures

What else we do in Oakfield
What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Clear the area around the damage
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Related advice
Oakfield: your questions answered
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Typically, if it isn’t leaking. A crack that leaks right through generally means a new basin.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send photos.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
When we would advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Leaks from the fittings
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- A basin that moves on its brackets
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we work on in Oakfield
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Oakfield. The price comes down to:
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How much damage there is
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- Natural light rather than flash
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
