What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Natural light rather than flash
Send us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your DA7 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
How the visit works
The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Bexleyheath: your questions answered
Can you repair an antique basin?

When can you do it?

Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Can tenants book a repair?

Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
What does sink repair cost?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.
Repair or replace in Bexleyheath?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Bexleyheath. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bexleyheath use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
