How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
What a repair cannot fix
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- Plumbing leaks
- Widespread crazing
- Through cracks that let water out
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
What happens on the day
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- 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.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- Usually the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
How to get a price
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
Should you replace it?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
What you get with us
- No need to remove anything
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Use gentle cleaners
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Get chips repaired early
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Do you need sink repair in Boxford?
Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped, so chips are common. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.
Look out for these signs:
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- A chipped vanity basin
- An original basin worth saving
- A crack near the taps

Boxford questions
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
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.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Surface cracks can usually be repaired. A crack that leaks right through usually means a new basin.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
