Sink Repair for Staple Hill homes
Problem with your basin in Staple Hill? We repair it in place, match it on site and guarantee the work for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Use mild cleaners only
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
Sink repair in Staple Hill without replacing anything
If the whole basin is crazed or worn, it can be resurfaced in place, giving it an even new finish. Typical jobs include a crack near the taps and a chipped basin edge, across Belfast and butler sinks, ceramic & vitreous china basins and vanity unit basins.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

What happens on the day
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- You can generally use the basin later that day or the next.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Questions from Staple Hill
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.

For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
When we would advise against a repair
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Leaks from the fittings
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Widespread crazing
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

What we are called out for in Staple Hill
Basins take knocks every day: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners catch the front edge and rim. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Chips on a built-in basin
- Chips around the rim
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- Cracks starting at the waste
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
What affects the price in Staple Hill
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
- How hard the colour is to match
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Repairs by material
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
