Common questions in Oakhanger
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Oakhanger?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
Which areas do you work in?
The whole UK, including all of Cheshire East. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Surface cracks can normally be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole basin and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
About our sink repair in Oakhanger
We match the glaze as well as the colour, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. Our technicians work on enamelled basins, Belfast and butler sinks and vanity unit basins, and the jobs we see most are crazing in the glaze and chips from dropped toiletries.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

What affects the price in Oakhanger
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Oakhanger. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A photo taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Use mild cleaners only
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
What we do, step by step
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours for most chips. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- 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
- Make sure the area is dry
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

For landlords and businesses
Letting agents frequently send us photos 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.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Common problems we fix in Oakhanger
Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped, so chips are common. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.
Customers generally contact us about:
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- Chips around the rim
- Fine cracks across the glaze
Questions to ask before you book
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers

- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Through cracks that let water out
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Why repair rather than replace?
A basin is usually fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Our sink repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
