How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • Access to the area
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the whole basin

If you are in Potter's Green and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

What we are called out for in Potter's Green

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • A crazed, tired basin
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • An original basin worth saving

What your quote should include

  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Aftercare advice

10 questions to ask before you book

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Potter's Green

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Your questions about sink repair in Potter's Green

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

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 you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Surface cracks can normally be repaired. A crack that leaks right through normally means a new basin.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Potter's Green. Prices don’t change with location.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

  • Vanity unit basins
  • Enamelled basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Antique & period basins

Different materials, different repairs

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
