Sink repair in Stibb Cross

What affects the price in Stibb Cross

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material
  • How easy the damage is to reach

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Stibb Cross. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Stibb Cross questions

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Often. Send us photos and we’ll tell you.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, and that includes Stibb Cross. Prices do not change with location.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

What a repair can’t fix

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Vanity unit basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Enamelled basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Antique & period basins

How to care for the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Store toiletries on a shelf

Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. A repair keeps the basin you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Why book with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Colour-matched on site
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

See our full price list.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

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.

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What we’re called out for in Stibb Cross

Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, along with damage during fitting.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • A chipped vanity basin
  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • A crazed, tired basin

Before you book anyone

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • When it can be used again
  • What prep work is covered

Our hiring checklist

How the visit works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Getting a price
