What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for St Blazey Gate. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

What a repair cannot fix

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Widespread crazing
  • Through cracks that let water out
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

  • Antique & period basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Enamelled basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Vanity unit basins

How it works

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 we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Get chips repaired early

Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

What we are called out for in St Blazey Gate

Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: bottles, hair straighteners and razors chip the rim and front edge. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.
