What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Send us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Denton, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Sink repair in Denton without replacing anything

Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. We regularly repair ceramic & vitreous china basins, vanity unit basins and antique & period basins, and people most frequently call us about chips on the rim or front edge and an antique basin with chips.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Repair chips before they stain

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

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.

Signs you need sink repair in Denton

Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • A crazed, tired basin
  • An original basin worth saving
  • Chips on the rim or front edge
  • Knocks from hair straighteners

Questions to ask before booking

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Who will actually do the work
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Our hiring checklist

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • Leaks from the fittings

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Antique & period basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Enamelled basins

What we do, step by step

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Related advice

Should you replace it?

A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Common questions in Denton

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can you repair a chipped basin?
