Should you replace it?
Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What kind of damage it is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the photos on your phone. Ensure they show:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Other services in Hungarton
Hungarton: your questions answered
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Hungarton.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Do you cover Hungarton?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Hungarton. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
What a repair cannot fix
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Widespread crazing
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Get chips repaired early
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
What happens on the day
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let us know which floor the room is on
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
