What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How easy the damage is to reach
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Details of any past repairs
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A photo taken from further back
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire basin, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
When we’d advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Get chips repaired early
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Common questions in Wool
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Repairing versus replacing in Wool
Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
