How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
There are no surprise 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.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- A photo taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Questions from Shaftesbury
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Can you price it without visiting?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a basin frequently means a plumber, new taps or wastes and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Shaftesbury
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Shaftesbury as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
