Why repair rather than replace?
Finding the same basin again is not always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Our sink repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Carstairs. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why book with us
- Same prices wherever you are
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Work done at your home or business

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Carstairs. What changes the price is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed price
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
For a price in Carstairs, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Repair chips before they stain
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.
How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon. We leave the room clean.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
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.
