Why repair rather than replace?
Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Our sink repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking.
Why us?
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Free fixed quotes from pictures

Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Repair chips before they stain
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
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.
Quotes from your photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Vitreous china

Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Child's Ercall as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
