What happens on the day

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, tidy-up included.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the entire basin

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Your questions about sink repair in Stanley

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Do you come to Stanley?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Stanley. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Mention it when you ask for a quote.

What do you need from me?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Honest limits

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • Through cracks that let water out

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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

Repair or replace in Stanley?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is typically the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is typically best. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Why us?

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

How to care for the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Do not overtighten taps
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools

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.

Common problems we fix in Stanley

Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: bottles, hair straighteners and razors catch the front edge and rim. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • An antique basin with chips
  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • Crazing in the glaze

What your quote should include

  • How your room will be protected
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • If travel is included in the price
