Can you price it without visiting?

A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
What happens on the day
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Getting a price
Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your CB6 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Signs you need sink repair in Oxlode
Most chips come from something dropped into the bowl, along with damage during fitting.
Look out for any of the following:
- Chips on a built-in basin
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Cracks starting at the waste
What to look for in a quote
- How the colour is matched
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Get chips repaired early
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
