What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Access to the area
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
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.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

The process
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- The basin can generally be used later that day or the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price
If you are in Bishop Norton and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
When we would advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins

Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Repair chips before they stain
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Use gentle cleaners
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Common questions in Bishop Norton
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.
Do you work in Bishop Norton?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Bishop Norton for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
