Common questions in Lapley
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Generally, if it isn’t leaking. A crack that leaks right through typically means a new basin.
Do you cover the whole of Staffordshire?
All of Staffordshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
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 isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Sink repair in Lapley without replacing anything
We match the glaze as well as the colour. Repairs are polished to the same shine. We work on Belfast and butler sinks, vanity unit basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and the jobs we see most are chips around the rim and a period basin that needs restoring.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Lapley as everywhere else we work.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
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.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
- How hard the colour is to match
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the entire basin
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
For a price in Lapley, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Repairing versus replacing in Lapley
A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Get chips repaired early
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
What we cannot put right
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- A basin cracked through and leaking
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
