Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Advice
What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- One picture of the whole basin
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Get chips repaired early
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Common problems we fix in Radley
Most chips come from something dropped into the bowl, along with damage during fitting.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- An original basin worth saving
- A crazed, tired basin
- Chips around the rim
What your quote should include
- How your room will be protected
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Who will actually do the work

Radley: your questions answered
Will you remove the sink?
Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
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.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Should you replace it?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is typically best. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
