What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
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.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your SR8 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Your questions about sink repair in Easington
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Should you replace it?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is generally the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is typically best. Our sink repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
What we cannot put right
We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Through cracks that let water out
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- Leaks from the fittings
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
What we are called out for in Easington
Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- An antique basin with chips
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- A chipped vanity basin
- Chips from dropped toiletries

- When it can be used again

What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- The basin can generally be used later that day or the following day.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Get a quote
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
