Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Repair chips before they stain
- Avoid abrasive pads
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Questions from Kirkley
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
