What a repair can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- A basin cracked through and leaking
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The material
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Access to the area
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- The material, if you know it
- Something in shot to show the size
- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can price the job.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Advice
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.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Do you need sink repair in The Mumbles?
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, and cracks can start at the tap holes.
People typically call us when they notice one of these:
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- Crazing in the glaze
- A crack near the taps
Questions to ask before booking
- How changes to the job are handled
- How soon you can use it again
- How to look after the finish
- Who will actually do the work
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.
Why book with us
- Everything repaired in place
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- We leave the room as we found it
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
