What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material
- How hard the colour is to match
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
For a price in Howden Clough, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, 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.
The process
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Ask for a price
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your WF17 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Honest limits
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Leaks from the fittings
- A basin cracked through and leaking
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Use mild cleaners only
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
