Sink Repair for Rockstowes homes
Our repair technicians come to Rockstowes for chip, crack and resurfacing work on bathroom sinks and basins. Everything is done in place, and the work is guaranteed.
- Repairs from £95
- Chips around the rim
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Repair chips before they stain
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
Sink repair at your home in Rockstowes
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. Common call-outs are for chips around the rim and cracks around the tap holes or waste, across enamelled basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and antique & period basins.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Details of any past repairs
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Our sink repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Why book with us
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Rooms protected and left tidy
