What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Ferndown. The price comes down to:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Ferndown. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Common questions in Ferndown
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Use mild cleaners only
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
