Sink repair in Little Staughton without replacing anything
When a basin is worn or crazed all over, we can resurface it in place, giving it an even new finish. We regularly repair ceramic & vitreous china basins, Belfast and butler sinks and antique & period basins, and common reasons people contact us are cracks around the tap holes or waste and chips around the rim.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Little Staughton. The price comes down to:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send photos for a quote
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- The material, if you know it
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your MK44 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Repairs by material
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Your questions about sink repair in Little Staughton
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Often. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What we cannot put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Leaks from the fittings
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Should you replace it?
A basin is usually fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Little Staughton
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Have new chips repaired quickly
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
How the visit works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a couple of hours for most chips, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- You can usually use the basin later that day or the next.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
