Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Details of any past repairs
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
About our sink repair in Wheatacre
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. Our technicians work on vanity unit basins, antique & period basins and enamelled basins, and common reasons people get in touch are chips on a built-in basin and a chipped basin edge.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Repairing versus replacing in Wheatacre
Replacing a basin frequently means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Our sink repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Wheatacre. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

When a repair isn’t the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Enamelled basins

DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Ask for a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
