How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- How much damage there is
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Something in shot to show the size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
How the visit works
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- Typically the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Getting a price
Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Perranarworthal, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Related advice
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Get chips repaired early
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
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.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Your questions about sink repair in Perranarworthal
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
When we would advise against a repair
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Plumbing leaks
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
