Moorstock: your questions answered
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Will you remove the sink?
No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Moorstock?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
What else we do in Moorstock
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Get chips repaired early
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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, it’s worth having it done properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Moorstock. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
- A photo taken from further back
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.
What a repair cannot fix
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Plumbing leaks
- Through cracks that let water out
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Should you replace it?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Prices start from £95.
