How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Newmills. The price reflects:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
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.
Quotes from your photos
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- A photo taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
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.
How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a couple of hours for most chips in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- Usually the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Open a window if you can

FAQs for Newmills
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Will you remove the sink?
No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Newmills
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Why repair rather than replace?
Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
