How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Send photos for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
What we do, step by step
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- The basin can usually be used later that day or the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price
Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Lower Street, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Do not overtighten taps
- Get chips repaired early
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
Common questions in Lower Street
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Lower Street included. Travel is included in the price.
What do you need from me?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lower Street as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
What we can’t put right
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- A basin cracked through and leaking
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
