DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Repair or replace: which is better?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is generally the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Our sink repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Tarrant Keyneston. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
For landlords and businesses
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
How the visit works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
