Advice
What affects the price in Brinsea
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Your questions about sink repair in Brinsea
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
Repairs by material
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Repair chips before they stain
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
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.
