What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Burley. The price comes down to:
- The material
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Burley. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Where you are, by postcode
- The material, if you know it
If you’re in Burley and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Should you replace it?
A new basin often means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Use gentle cleaners
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
