Should you replace it?
A basin is typically fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Staffordshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Burntwood. What changes the price is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How much damage there is
- The material
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Burntwood. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the whole basin
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Burntwood, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, then guarantee it for a year.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
The process
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Open a window if you can
How to get a price
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Get chips repaired early
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
