Why repair rather than replace?
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. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Kyleakin. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Have new chips repaired quickly
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- The material
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
If you are in Kyleakin and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
