How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
- Where you are, by postcode
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Froggatt: your questions answered
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Froggatt?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your S32 postcode.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Usually, if it isn’t leaking. A crack that leaks right through normally means a new basin.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Signs you need sink repair in Froggatt
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, and cracks can start at the tap holes.
Customers normally contact us about:
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- Chips around the rim
- An antique basin with chips
- Chips on a built-in basin
Questions to ask before you book
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How to look after the finish
- How your room will be protected
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
What we cannot put right
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Widespread crazing
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Through cracks that let water out
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we work on in Froggatt
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins

- Antique & period basins
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
Repairing versus replacing in Froggatt
Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
