How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price.
Why repair rather than replace?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
