What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A picture taken from further back
- Natural light rather than flash
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Sink repair in Boythorpe, done in place
Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. Our repair technicians work on antique & period basins, vanity unit basins and enamelled basins, and the jobs we see most are a period basin that needs restoring and chips on a built-in basin.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Repair chips before they stain
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

When we would advise against a repair
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- Through cracks that let water out
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
