How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
What we can’t put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Leaks from the fittings
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins

Questions from Newfield
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
How much does sink repair cost in Newfield?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your DL14 postcode.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, so Newfield is covered. Prices do not change with location.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Are there extra charges for Newfield?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Do you disconnect the taps?
Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Common problems we fix in Newfield
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- An original basin worth saving
What your quote should include
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What aftercare is recommended
The process
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Related advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Should you replace it?
Finding the same basin again is not always possible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Prices start from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
