Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- The material, if you know it
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire basin, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
FAQs for Turves Green
Are there extra charges for Turves Green?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.
What does sink repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your B31 postcode.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Our sink repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Turves Green. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Other services in Turves Green
For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Birmingham and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
What we cannot put right
We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Leaks from the fittings
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
