How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- A photo taken from further back
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Early repair keeps it a small job.
The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep a parking space free if you can
How to get a price

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Common questions in Lewknor
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, very frequently. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
How do I book?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
What we can’t put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- Leaks from the fittings
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
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 usually the cheaper route.
Landlord and trade work in Lewknor
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
