Should you replace it?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is typically the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Burton End: your questions answered
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you come to Burton End?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Burton End. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
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, and the work is guaranteed.

What else we do in Burton End
What a repair cannot fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Leaks from the fittings
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we work on in Burton End
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Landlord and trade work in Burton End
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
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.
Send pictures for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
