What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
- How much damage there is
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
If you manage property in Baumber, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
FAQs for Baumber
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you repair an antique basin?

How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole basin and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
Can you repair several things at once?

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
