How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- The material
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A picture taken from further back
For a price in Upper Street, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
What we do, step by step
The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice
Honest limits
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Antique & period basins

- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, 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.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Use mild cleaners only
Go 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 and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.
