Sink repair at your home in Barlaston
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. Typical jobs include a crack near the taps and a chipped vanity basin, in enamelled basins, antique & period basins and vanity unit basins.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Should you replace it?
Finding the same basin again is not always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why us?
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Most jobs done in one visit
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

What else we do in Barlaston
Landlord and trade work in Barlaston
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
For anyone letting property in or around Barlaston, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Barlaston: your questions answered
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of Staffordshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Use mild cleaners only
- Get chips repaired early
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
The process
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a couple of hours for most chips, including clearing up.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Repairs by material
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
