How to care for the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
- Access to the area
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A photo taken from further back
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- You can normally use the basin later that day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Ask for a price
If you are in Linton and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

When we’d advise against a repair
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Plumbing leaks
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
Why repair rather than replace?
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. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
What you get with us
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- One price list for the whole UK
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Questions from Linton
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.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of Kent. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
When to call us in Linton
Basins take knocks every day: bottles, hair straighteners and razors chip the rim and front edge. Cracks often start around the taps and waste.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- Chips around the rim
- Chips on a built-in basin
