What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Silian. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Details of any past repairs
- A photo taken from further back
- Something in shot to show the size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Do you need sink repair in Silian?
Fine crazing in the glaze is normally down to age, and strong chemicals speed it up.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- A chipped basin edge
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- Cracks starting at the waste
- Crazing in the glaze
Questions to ask before you book
- What happens if they find more damage
- What aftercare is recommended
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- When it can be used again
How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Get chips repaired early
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

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 them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
