What sink repair costs

- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.
Quotes from your photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
The process
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a couple of hours for most chips, tidy-up included.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit

Common questions in Normanby by Stow
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Surface cracks can normally be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Can you price it without visiting?
Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Lincolnshire.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. 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 photos.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Do not overtighten taps
- Repair chips before they stain
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Plumbing leaks
- A basin cracked through and leaking
