What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- How much damage there is
- The type of damage
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How easy the damage is to reach
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send photos for a quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.

Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Getting a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
