Repairing versus replacing in Owthorpe

- We protect the area around the basin.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

What else we do in Owthorpe
What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, 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.
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Owthorpe questions
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Nottinghamshire.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
In many cases. Send us photos and we’ll tell you.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire basin and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Chips on a built-in basin
- Crazing in the glaze
- Chips around the rim
- Cracks starting at the waste

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
