Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your WN6 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Use gentle cleaners
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A basin is generally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Our sink repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Shevington Moor. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
