What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Should you replace it?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is usually the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Horton Heath. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Related advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Horton Heath: your questions answered
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
