How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Chapelgate. The price depends on:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire basin, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Get chips repaired early

A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, 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, with colour mixed on site.

Repair or replace in Chapelgate?

Finding the same basin again is not always possible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
