What affects the price in Stanley Green

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match

Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Quotes from your pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

What happens on the day

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Advice

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

What we’re called out for in Stanley Green

Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, which can crack it around the holes.

Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:

  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • Crazing in the glaze
  • Chips around the rim

What your quote should include

  • Who turns up on the day
  • What prep work is covered
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Aftercare advice

Choosing a repair company

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Stanley Green use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

How to look after the repair

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Stanley Green: your questions answered

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.

Do you work in Stanley Green?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Stanley Green. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Repairing versus replacing in Stanley Green

Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Our sink repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
