How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Frating Green. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
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 is not prepared the repair will not last.
When to call us in Frating Green
Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped, so chips are common. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.
People typically call us when they notice one of these:
- An original basin worth saving

Frating Green questions
How much does sink repair cost in Frating Green?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Do you disconnect the taps?
Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, very often. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
