How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A picture taken from further back
Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your PR6 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

FAQs for Grimeford Village
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Typically, if it isn’t leaking. A crack that leaks right through normally means a new basin.

Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Should you replace it?

The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Use gentle cleaners
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Don’t overtighten taps
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
