About sink & basin repair
What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Repair chips before they stain
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.
What we do, step by step
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a couple of hours for most chips. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Get a quote
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

FAQs for Winestead
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Often. Send us photos and we will tell you.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Will you remove the sink?
Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
Do you cover the whole of East Riding of Yorkshire?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Winestead. Prices don’t change with location.
What we cannot put right
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Leaks from the fittings
- A basin cracked through and leaking
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
