What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • How many areas need work
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One picture of the whole basin
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Honest limits

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Enamelled basins
  • Antique & period basins
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Avoid abrasive pads

Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Questions from Brokes

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Brokes included. There is no extra charge for travel.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Will you remove the sink?

No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Our sink repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why Brokes clients choose us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Same prices wherever you are

Landlord and trade work in Brokes

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

The process

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Open a window if you can
  • Ensure the area is dry

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Do you need sink repair in Brokes?

A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, so chips are common. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.

Look out for these signs:

  • An antique basin with chips
  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • A chipped basin edge

Questions to ask before booking

  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How soon you can use it again
