What your basin is made of matters

Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.

Questions from Oban
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, and that includes Oban. Prices don’t change with location.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Can you quote from pictures?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
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.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
How much does sink repair cost in Oban?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your PA34 postcode.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Oban. The price depends on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The size and number of damaged areas
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
The process
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. 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.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- The basin can usually be used later that day or the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Repair chips before they stain
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
When we’d advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks

Repairing versus replacing in Oban
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is usually best. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Oban. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
