How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. 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. Damage, material and access decide it.
Why us?

Your questions about sink repair in Kilmaurs
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
What does sink repair cost?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Do you come to Kilmaurs?
We do. We send a technician to Kilmaurs for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.

Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Use mild cleaners only
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
