Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Buckinghamshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Use mild cleaners only
- Don’t overtighten taps
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
How the visit works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, including clearing up.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire basin, we can give you a fixed price.
When a repair is not the answer
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Through cracks that let water out
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Plumbing leaks

What else we do in Oakley
Your questions about sink repair in Oakley
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do you come to Oakley?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Oakley from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Do you need sink repair in Oakley?
Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, and some happen during bathroom refits.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- A chipped vanity basin
- A period basin that needs restoring

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
