What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- The material
- The type of damage
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Unusual colours or finishes
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Most clients in Old Radnor get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Old Radnor
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
The process
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a couple of hours for most chips. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Advice
When we’d advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Through cracks that let water out
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Get chips repaired early
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Don’t overtighten taps
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
