Sink repair for Great Stoke homes

Sink repair in Great Stoke without replacing anything

A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage so it blends into the glaze. If you’re dealing with a chipped basin edge and a crack near the taps, we can help, whatever the material.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Most clients in Great Stoke get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

How the visit works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Getting a price

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Great Stoke, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Related advice

Great Stoke: your questions answered

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin

Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

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.

Signs you need sink repair in Great Stoke

Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped, from glass bottles to hairdryers. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.

  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • Chips around the rim

What your quote should include

  • How to care for the finish
  • Who will actually do the work
  • What prep work is covered

How to compare quotes

Should you replace it?

Finding the same basin again is not always possible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

What we can’t put right

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
