How we price sink repair

- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- One picture of the entire basin
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Questions from Whitfield
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Frequently. Send us photos and we will tell you.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

When we would advise against a repair
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Through cracks that let water out
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we do, step by step
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a couple of hours for most chips. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- Generally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Point us to the nearest place to park
How to get a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Why repair rather than replace?
Finding the same basin again is not always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why us?
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Work done at your home or business
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
