What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Llynclys. The price reflects:
- How much damage there is
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send photos for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The material, if you know it
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Use gentle cleaners
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Llynclys
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

How it works
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- 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.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- Normally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Make sure the area is dry
Ask for a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

What does sink repair cost?

Do you disconnect the taps?
No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.
