What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Unusual colours or finishes

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Invermoriston. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the entire basin

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know about parking or access

Questions from Invermoriston

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

What does sink repair cost?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Invermoriston. Our prices are the same everywhere.

What we can’t put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • Widespread crazing
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

  • Antique & period basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Enamelled basins

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Repairs by material

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.

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Use gentle cleaners

Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
