What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Blackpool Corner. What changes the price is:
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
Send us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your EX13 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Sink repair in Blackpool Corner, done in place
If the entire basin is crazed or worn, it can be resurfaced in place, for a fresh, even finish. Our repair technicians work on enamelled basins, antique & period basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and the jobs we see most are cracks around the tap holes or waste and chips on a built-in basin.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
Common problems we fix in Blackpool Corner
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, and cracks can start at the tap holes.
People usually call us when they notice something like this:
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- Cracks starting at the waste
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- A period basin that needs restoring

Questions from Blackpool Corner
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
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’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you cover Blackpool Corner?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Blackpool Corner for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Will you remove the sink?
Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Plumbing leaks
- Through cracks that let water out
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Antique & period basins

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Should you replace it?
A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
