DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
The process
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours for most chips. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear the area around the damage
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Your questions about sink repair in St. Ebbes
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed price, usually with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Do you cover the whole of Oxfordshire?
All of Oxfordshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
What a repair can’t fix
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Leaks from the fittings
- Widespread crazing
- A crack that leaks right through the basin

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Why repair rather than replace?
Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
