Stillingfleet: your questions answered
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your YO19 postcode.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Surface cracks can typically be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a basin frequently means 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. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

- The material
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How much damage there is
- What kind of damage it is
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Details of any past repairs
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Honest limits
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Widespread crazing
- Leaks from the fittings
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins

What happens on the day

- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Advice
Can I fix it myself?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
