Repair or replace in Stainsacre?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is normally the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is typically best. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Stainsacre. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Honest limits
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Through cracks that let water out
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
The process
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Stainsacre: your questions answered
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Will the price change on the day?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes, very frequently. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Use mild cleaners only
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
