What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- Natural light rather than flash
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Most clients in Lisbon get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Use mild cleaners only
- Get chips repaired early
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Should you replace it?
A new basin often means a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Our sink repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
What happens on the day
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a couple of hours for most chips. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Make sure the area is dry
- Let us know about parking or access
