What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Send photos for a quote
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
What a repair can’t fix
We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Leaks from the fittings
- Widespread crazing
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we work on in Knockholt
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
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.
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Knockholt, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Knockholt use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Your questions about sink repair in Knockholt
Do you cover the entire of Kent?
All of Kent, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Do you come to Knockholt?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Knockholt from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

- A chipped vanity basin

- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- A chipped basin edge

The process
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
