What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- How much damage there is
- The material
- Doing more than one item at once
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Repair chips before they stain
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- You can normally use the basin later that day or the next.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

What we’re called out for in Temple Bar
Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, and cracks can start at the tap holes.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A period basin that needs restoring
- A crazed, tired basin
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
Before booking anyone
- How the room is protected while they work
- What prep work is covered
- Aftercare advice

Should you replace it?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Temple Bar questions
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Will you remove the sink?
No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
When we would advise against a repair
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:
- Plumbing leaks
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Belfast and butler sinks
