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. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Stanfree. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How we handle sink repair in Stanfree
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. We regularly repair Belfast and butler sinks, ceramic & vitreous china basins and vanity unit basins, and the jobs we see most are a period basin that needs restoring and chips on a built-in basin.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Stanfree and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What else we do in Stanfree
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Use gentle cleaners
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Do you need sink repair in Stanfree?
Most chips come from something dropped into the bowl, along with damage during fitting.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- A chipped basin edge
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- Chips on a built-in basin
Questions to ask before booking
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What prep work is covered
- What protection goes down before work starts
What we can’t put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Leaks from the fittings
- Through cracks that let water out
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Stanfree questions
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
Do you come to Stanfree?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Stanfree from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, very frequently. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
How much does sink repair cost in Stanfree?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Stanfree. The price reflects:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the whole basin
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
