How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Access to the area
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed price
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A picture taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Details of any past repairs
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Oldcroft: your questions answered
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Do you come to Oldcroft?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Oldcroft for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- Typically the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Repairing versus replacing in Oldcroft
Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
What you get with us

Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.

Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Get chips repaired early
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
