What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed price
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.
The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a couple of hours for most chips for most jobs. We leave the room clean.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- The basin can typically be used later that day or the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Should you replace it?

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Hambridge. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Hambridge, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Questions from Hambridge
How do I get a price for sink repair in Hambridge?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Get chips repaired early
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
When to call us in Hambridge
Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: bottles, hair straighteners and razors chip the rim and front edge. Cracks often start around the taps and waste.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- Chips around the rim
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
Before booking anyone
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What prep work is covered
