What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Friday Street. The price reflects:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Friday Street. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Repairs by material

Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Replacing a basin frequently means a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

- Antique & period basins

- Belfast and butler sinks

Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Get chips repaired early
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
