How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
- The type of damage
- The material and finish
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Southwood. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
What a repair can’t fix

- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- A basin cracked through and leaking
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
What happens on the day
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- Usually the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Related advice
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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 won’t last.
How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Use gentle cleaners
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Get chips repaired early
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Signs you need sink repair in Southwood
