DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Worthing. What changes the price is:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the whole basin
- Natural light rather than flash
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.
Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Norfolk and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Use mild cleaners only
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Repairing versus replacing in Worthing
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is generally the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is typically best. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Questions from Worthing
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Do you cover Worthing?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Worthing and the rest of Norfolk. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
What we can’t put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Widespread crazing
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Do you need sink repair in Worthing?

- A crack near the taps
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- An original basin worth saving
- Chips around the rim

What happens on the day
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- Usually the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Make sure the area is dry
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
