What affects the price in Box
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the whole basin
- Natural light rather than flash
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Box
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
If you manage property in Box, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
When we would advise against a repair
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Box

- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- The basin can generally be used later that day or the day after.

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Advice
Box: your questions answered
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Box.
How much does sink repair cost in Box?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your SA15 postcode.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Do not overtighten taps
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Repairing versus replacing in Box
Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
