Sink repair for Owlswick homes

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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 fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

How we handle sink repair in Owlswick

From cloakroom basins to period pieces, in ceramic, composite and enamel. Taps and wastes stay connected. We’re frequently asked to fix chips from dropped toiletries and an original basin worth saving, on Belfast and butler sinks, antique & period basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Something in shot to show the size

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Don’t overtighten taps

Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Leaks from the fittings
  • Through cracks that let water out

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Enamelled basins
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Antique & period basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks

Owlswick: your questions answered

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire basin and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

What does sink repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Owlswick. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Should you replace it?

Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Our sink repair starts from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. The basin can normally be used later that day or the next day.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Open a window if you can
  • Make sure the area is dry

Get a quote

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
