How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- One picture of the whole basin
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Patching, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Advice
Why repair rather than replace?
A new basin frequently means a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
What you get with us
- We leave the room as we found it
- No need to remove anything
- Work done at your home or business
- One-year guarantee on every repair

Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
What else we do in Patching
What a repair cannot fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Widespread crazing
- A basin that moves on its brackets
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff:
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Get chips repaired early
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Landlord and trade work in Patching
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
Questions to ask before booking

Patching questions
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
How much does sink repair cost in Patching?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
