What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Hollinwood. The price comes down to:
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Hollinwood. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
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.
Work for landlords and builders
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Repair chips before they stain
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
