Sink repair at your home in Stanbridge
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. We fill, shape and polish the damage to blend with the surrounding glaze. If you’re dealing with cracks around the tap holes or waste and knocks from hair straighteners, we can normally put it right, on antique & period basins, vanity unit basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins alike.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Stanbridge
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Get chips repaired early
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Avoid abrasive pads
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Plumbing leaks
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Common questions in Stanbridge
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your LU7 postcode.
What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

What affects the price in Stanbridge
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Any details about the material
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
If you’re in Stanbridge and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Should you replace it?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Our sink repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
