Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a basin often means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, 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 you book.

Sink repair in Stean without replacing anything
Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. If you’re dealing with chips on the rim or front edge and fine cracks across the glaze, we can generally put it right, on vanity unit basins, enamelled basins and Belfast and butler sinks alike.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Stean and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

When a repair isn’t the answer
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Plumbing leaks
- Through cracks that let water out
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

Surfaces we repair
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins

What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
Questions from Stean
Are there extra charges for Stean?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
What we’re called out for in Stean
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.
Look out for any of the following:
- An antique basin with chips
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- A crack near the taps
- Fine cracks across the glaze
Before you book anyone
- What preparation is included
- How soon you can use it again
- How to look after the finish
- Who turns up on the day
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in North Yorkshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
