Sink repair in and around Marsh Green: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- An original basin worth saving
- Chips on the rim or front edge
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Surfaces we repair
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins

How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Do not overtighten taps
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
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.
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take a couple of hours for most chips, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Open a window if you can
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice
Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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 normally the cheaper route.

Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
When to call us in Marsh Green
Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: bottles, hair straighteners and razors catch the front edge and rim. Cracks frequently start around the taps and waste.
