How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your DE4 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Get chips repaired early
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours. The room is left tidy.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Advice
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Matlock Bath questions

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
