Repair or replace: which is better?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Higher Town use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

When we would advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Widespread crazing
- Leaks from the fittings
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Higher Town. The price reflects:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. 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.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

What else we do in Higher Town
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
What happens on the day
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Getting a price
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Advice
Questions from Higher Town
How much does sink repair cost in Higher Town?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price, generally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Generally, if it isn’t leaking. A crack that leaks right through normally means a new basin.
