Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material
- The type of damage
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Wilkinthroop. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
FAQs for Wilkinthroop
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
Will you remove the sink?
No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you work in Wilkinthroop?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Wilkinthroop and the rest of Somerset. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Repair or replace in Wilkinthroop?
A basin is normally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Our sink repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Use gentle cleaners
- Get chips repaired early
- Do not overtighten taps
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
What we cannot put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Plumbing leaks
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take a couple of hours for most chips, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
