Before and after: an old basin refinished to bright white

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

Do you need sink repair in Stackhouse?

A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, so chips are common. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.

Clients normally contact us about:

  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • A crack near the taps
  • Chips around the rim
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools

Our hiring checklist

What a repair can’t fix

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Plumbing leaks
  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Enamelled basins
  • Antique & period basins

FAQs for Stackhouse

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

What happens next?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.

Are there extra charges for Stackhouse?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

What affects the price in Stackhouse

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many areas need work

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Stackhouse. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It generally takes a couple of hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Related advice

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools

Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
