About our sink repair in Hollins
Chipped, cracked and crazed basins and vanity units can be repaired, with the colour and shine matched to the basin. The basin stays on the wall. We work on antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and common reasons people get in touch are cracks starting at the waste and a chipped basin edge.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Have new chips repaired quickly
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Hollins questions
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do you cover the entire of Staffordshire?
Across the UK, so Hollins is covered. Prices do not change with location.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, very often. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Repairing versus replacing in Hollins
A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hollins use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
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 to call us in Hollins
Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and strong chemicals speed it up.
People normally call us when they notice one of these:
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- An original basin worth saving
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
Comparing quotes
- How the colour is matched
- When it can be used again
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether the price covers travel
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
