How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Samlesbury. What changes the price is:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Common problems we fix in Samlesbury
Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, and some happen during bathroom refits.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- A chipped basin edge
- A crazed, tired basin
- A period basin that needs restoring
Questions to ask before booking
- How to care for the finish

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Lancashire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Samlesbury questions
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a couple of hours for most chips. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
How to get a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Do not overtighten taps
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
