What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
The process
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- Typically the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Authorpe
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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, and the work is guaranteed.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Questions from Authorpe
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Will you remove the sink?
No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Do you need sink repair in Authorpe?
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, from glass bottles to hairdryers. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.
Most people contact us after spotting something like this:
- An antique basin with chips
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- Cracks starting at the waste
Before booking anyone
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
Should you replace it?
Replacing a basin often means a plumber, new taps or wastes and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
