Sink repair at your home in Stamperland

When a basin is worn or crazed all over, it can be resurfaced in place, for a fresh, even finish. We work on enamelled basins, antique & period basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and people most frequently call us about damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and an original basin worth saving.

Repair or replace: which is better?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is typically the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many areas need work
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The colour and finish to match

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Most clients in Stamperland get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Stamperland

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

FAQs for Stamperland

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Do you come to Stamperland?

We do. Technicians travel to Stamperland from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

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

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a couple of hours for most chips for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice

When a repair is not the answer

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
