How to care for the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Use gentle cleaners

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Sink repair at your home in Stanley

Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. We are frequently asked to fix cracks around the tap holes or waste and fine cracks across the glaze, across vanity unit basins, Belfast and butler sinks and ceramic & vitreous china basins.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Ask for a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Your questions about sink repair in Stanley

Do you cover the whole of Nottinghamshire?

We work UK-wide, so Stanley is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Surface cracks can normally be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Will you remove the sink?

No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.

Do you work in Stanley?

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

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Stanley.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Stanley

For anyone letting property in or around Stanley, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What we cannot put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Widespread crazing

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

  • Antique & period basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Enamelled basins
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

What affects the price in Stanley

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • One picture of the whole basin
  • Any details about the material
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

What we are called out for in Stanley

Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and strong chemicals speed it up.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • A crazed, tired basin
  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • Chips on the rim or front edge

What to look for in a quote

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How soon you can use it again

10 questions to ask before booking

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
