What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
Instead of hourly rates, 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.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- One picture of the whole basin
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Merston, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Why repair rather than replace?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is normally best. Prices start 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. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Merston
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Common questions in Merston
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire basin and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You will get a fixed quote back. There is no obligation to book.
What happens on the day
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.

Preparing for the visit
