About our sink repair in Overthorpe
From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, basin damage is generally repaired in place. Nothing is unplumbed or taken off the wall. We work on vanity unit basins, enamelled basins and antique & period basins, and the jobs we see most are chips around the rim and a crack near the taps.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Other services in Overthorpe
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Overthorpe. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your OX17 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Overthorpe
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
What happens on the day
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- 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.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- Generally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice
What we cannot put right
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Through cracks that let water out
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
