How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- Normally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Open a window if you can
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Ogston. The price reflects:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
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 we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
