What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Will you remove the sink?
Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, very frequently. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Osgathorpe as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- 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.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- You can generally use the basin later that day or the next.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Open a window if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Use mild cleaners only
- Get chips repaired early
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
What affects the price in Osgathorpe
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Osgathorpe. The price comes down to:
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the whole basin
- A close-up of the damage, in focus

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
