Why repair rather than replace?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Our sink repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Generally one visit, start to finish
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- One-year guarantee on every repair

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Haultwick. The price comes down to:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Natural light rather than flash
- Where you are, by postcode
- What it’s made of, if you know
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
