Your questions about sink repair in Over
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Do you come to Over?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Over. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Are there extra charges for Over?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your GL2 postcode.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You will get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.
What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- Usually the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your GL2 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Gloucestershire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Repair chips before they stain
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Use mild cleaners only
Treat the basin 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 get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Repair or replace in Over?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Our sink repair starts from £95.
