How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Access to the area
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Sink repair in Ashton without replacing anything
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. We regularly repair ceramic & vitreous china basins, antique & period basins and vanity unit basins, and common reasons people get in touch are crazing in the glaze and cracks starting at the waste.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

What a repair cannot fix
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Leaks from the fittings
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Ashton: your questions answered
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do you cover Ashton?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Ashton. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Do you cover the whole of Cornwall?
The whole UK, including all of Cornwall. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Don’t overtighten taps
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
