How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Weir. What changes the price is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- Plumbing leaks
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Get chips repaired early
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Should you replace it?
Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Weir. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Weir: your questions answered
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Do you disconnect the taps?
Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, very frequently. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
For anyone letting property in or around Weir, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
