- Repairs from £95
- Chips on the rim or front edge

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
- How easy the damage is to reach
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Preston Crowmarsh. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- Any details about the material
- Something in shot to show the size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Sink repair in Preston Crowmarsh without replacing anything
From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. We regularly repair antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and the jobs we see most are a chipped vanity basin and crazing in the glaze.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Common questions in Preston Crowmarsh
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Oxfordshire.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
