About our sink repair in Staythorpe
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. We are frequently asked to fix chips around the rim and cracks around the tap holes or waste, in Belfast and butler sinks, vanity unit basins and antique & period basins.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Your questions about sink repair in Staythorpe
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Generally, if it isn’t leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.

The process

- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

When we’d advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Leaks from the fittings
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Should you replace it?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is typically the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is generally best. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
