How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send photos for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Where you are, by postcode
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the entire basin
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.
Repair or replace: which is better?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is usually the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is generally best. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Use mild cleaners only
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
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.
