How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How much damage there is
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Natural light rather than flash
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A picture taken from further back
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Farrington Gurney use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Use gentle cleaners
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
What a repair cannot fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- Through cracks that let water out
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

The process
We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a couple of hours for most chips, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- You can generally use the basin later that day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
