What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The colour and finish to match

Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Getting a price from photos

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Details of any past repairs

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. 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.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Woodrow

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a couple of hours for most chips. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to compare quotes

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

When we’d advise against a repair

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Plumbing leaks
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Enamelled basins
  • Antique & period basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Vanity unit basins
