What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Upton. The price reflects:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Upton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
How it works
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a couple of hours for most chips. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- The basin can generally be used later that day or the next day.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Use mild cleaners only
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
