What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Sink repair in Sticker, done in place
We repair chips, cracks and crazing in ceramic basins and vanity units, matching the colour and gloss. Nothing is taken off the wall. If you are dealing with an original basin worth saving and chips on a built-in basin, we can help.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
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 frequently lifts.
Landlord and trade work in Sticker
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Cornwall and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Sticker as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Common questions in Sticker
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send photos.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
What happens after I send pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, especially in a matching suite. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Sticker. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
What you get with us
- We leave the room as we found it
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- No extra charge for your area

Advice
How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- How much damage there is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
- Unusual colours or finishes
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
- Where you are, by postcode
For a price in Sticker, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
