What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Catfield. The price comes down to:
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- What the surface is made of
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Repairing versus replacing in Catfield
Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Our sink repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

When a repair is not the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Leaks from the fittings
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

FAQs for Catfield
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you come to Catfield?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Catfield for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Are there extra charges for Catfield?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
How much does sink repair cost in Catfield?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Frequently. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes, very often. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
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.

Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is 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 photos.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
When to call us in Catfield
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, and cracks can start at the tap holes.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- A chipped basin edge
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- Chips from dropped toiletries
What your quote should include
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether the price covers travel
- When it can be used again
- What prep work is covered
What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
