How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Goosey. The price depends on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
- The material and finish
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Sink repair in Goosey without replacing anything
When a basin is worn or crazed all over, we can resurface it in place, for a fresh, even finish. We work on Belfast and butler sinks, antique & period basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and people most frequently call us about chips from dropped toiletries and crazing in the glaze.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

FAQs for Goosey
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What else we do in Goosey
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
When to call us in Goosey
Basins take knocks every day: bottles, hair straighteners and razors catch the front edge and rim. Cracks often start around the taps and waste.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- An original basin worth saving
- Chips on a built-in basin
Questions to ask before booking
- How changes to the job are handled
- How the colour is matched
- What prep work is covered
- How to look after the finish
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Plumbing leaks
- Widespread crazing
- A basin that moves on its brackets
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
What happens on the day
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a couple of hours for most chips. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- Usually the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Related advice
For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Repair chips before they stain
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Use mild cleaners only
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
