Should you replace it?
A basin is usually fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Poundstock. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Your questions about sink repair in Poundstock
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Generally, if it is not leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Repairs by material
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Honest limits
A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Widespread crazing
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- A basin that moves on its brackets
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we work on in Poundstock
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins

Signs you need sink repair in Poundstock
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.
The things customers typically mention when they call include:
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- A chipped basin edge
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- Chips from dropped toiletries
Questions to ask before booking
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What aftercare is recommended
- What protection goes down before work starts
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
What we do, step by step
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- Usually the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
