Otley questions
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
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.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, very often. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Frequently. Send us pictures and we’ll tell you.
When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Leaks from the fittings
- Widespread crazing
- Through cracks that let water out
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a basin often means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Our sink repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why us?
- We leave the room as we found it
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Common problems we fix in Otley
Basins take knocks every day: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners chip the rim and front edge. Cracks often start around the taps and waste.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- Cracks starting at the waste
What your quote should include

- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Who will actually do the work
What happens on the day
We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
