Sink Repair in Stapenhill
Sink repair in and around Stapenhill: a fixed quote from pictures, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- A crack near the taps
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A photo taken from further back
- Natural light rather than flash
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
If you’re in Stapenhill and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
