What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material and finish

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

Send photos for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Landlord and trade work in Broxholme

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Repairing versus replacing in Broxholme

A new basin often means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. A repair leaves everything in place. Our sink repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Advice

What your basin is made of matters

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Repair chips before they stain

Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

When to call us in Broxholme

Most chips come from something dropped into the bowl, and some happen during bathroom refits.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • An antique basin with chips
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • Chips on the rim or front edge
  • A crazed, tired basin

Questions to ask before you book

  • Aftercare advice
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether the price covers travel

Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send photos.

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
