What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the entire basin
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Questions from Church Cove
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Generally, if it is not leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed quote. You’re under no obligation.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes, very frequently. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you cover Church Cove?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Church Cove from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Plumbing leaks
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

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 often lifts.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
