What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

Questions from Chrishall

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

How do I get a price for sink repair in Chrishall?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

How the visit works

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a couple of hours for most chips, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. Generally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your SG8 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Our hiring checklist

Repairs by material

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Store toiletries on a shelf

Treat the basin 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.
