Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- The material
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire basin, we can give you a fixed price.
Should you replace it?
A basin is generally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to care for the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
