How sink repair works in Stockton-on-Tees

We match the glaze as well as the colour. Repairs are polished to the same shine. We work on enamelled basins, Belfast and butler sinks and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and the jobs we see most are chips around the rim and a crazed, tired basin.

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

What you’ll pay

Our sink repair starts from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Repairing versus replacing

A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that.

  • A chipped vanity basin
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Repairs by material

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.

When a repair is not the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Widespread crazing

FAQs for Stockton-on-Tees

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can tenants book a repair?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Do I need to be at home?

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?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
