Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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, then guarantee it for a year.

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
- Something in shot to show the size
- A picture taken from further back
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new basin often means a plumber, new taps or wastes and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Why us?
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- A fixed quote before you book
- Typically one visit, start to finish

- Chips on a built-in basin

Before you book anyone
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What preparation is included
- Whether they match the colour on site
How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
Chantry: your questions answered
How do I get a price for sink repair in Chantry?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Do you come to Chantry?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Chantry and the rest of Somerset. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
