Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
About our sink repair in Ossington
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. Our technicians work on antique & period basins, enamelled basins and vanity unit basins, and common reasons people contact us are knocks from hair straighteners and an antique basin with chips.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Nottinghamshire.

What affects the price in Ossington
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Ossington. The price comes down to:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- Where you are, by postcode
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Most customers in Ossington get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Ossington questions
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Repair chips before they stain
- Use mild cleaners only
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
Go 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 it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
