About our sink repair in Stannington
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. We fill, shape and polish the damage so it blends into the glaze. We regularly repair Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and vanity unit basins, and common reasons people contact us are cracks starting at the waste and chips on a built-in basin.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Access to the area
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the entire basin
- Any details about the material
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Questions from Stannington
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Stannington included. Travel is included in the price.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole basin and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How it works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a couple of hours for most chips, including clearing up.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Advice
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Repair chips before they stain
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Why repair rather than replace?
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. A repair avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Repairs by material
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Landlord and trade work in Stannington
For anyone letting property in or around Stannington, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Signs you need sink repair in Stannington
Basins take knocks every day: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners chip the rim and front edge. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.
