Before and after: a crack on the edge of a basin repaired

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Access to the area
  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Farnborough, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. You can usually use the basin later that day or the next.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Ask for a price

Do you need sink repair in Farnborough?

Fine crazing in the glaze is typically down to age, and strong chemicals speed it up.

Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:

  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • Chips around the rim
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • Fine cracks across the glaze

What your quote should include

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How to look after the finish
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

How to compare quotes

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

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.

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Which areas do you work in?

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

What happens next?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

What does sink repair cost?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Repairs by material

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best:

  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin

Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

What we can’t put right

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Leaks from the fittings
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
