What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A picture taken from further back
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
What we are called out for in Ashley
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, from glass bottles to hairdryers. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.
The things customers typically mention when they call include:
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- Crazing in the glaze
- Cracks starting at the waste
- A chipped vanity basin
What to look for in a quote
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- What happens if they find more damage
- What protection goes down before work starts
The process
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, tidy-up included.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Open a window if you can
Ask for a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Landlord and trade work in Ashley
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Questions from Ashley
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send photos.
Do you cover the whole of Shropshire?
The entire UK, including all of Shropshire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Will you remove the sink?
No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole basin and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.

Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Get chips repaired early
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Early repair keeps it a small job.
