Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material and finish
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take a couple of hours for most chips, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- The basin can generally be used later that day or the following day.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Ensure the area is dry

Repairing versus replacing in Barley
Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Signs you need sink repair in Barley
Basins take knocks every day: bottles, hair straighteners and razors chip the rim and front edge. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.
People generally call us after spotting something like this:
- Cracks starting at the waste
- A chipped vanity basin
- Chips around the rim
- Knocks from hair straighteners
What your quote should include
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Who will actually do the work
- If travel is included in the price
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Use mild cleaners only
- Have new chips repaired quickly
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
Questions from Barley
How do I get a price for sink repair in Barley?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, so Barley is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
