How we handle sink repair in Stobswood
When a basin is worn or crazed all over, we can resurface it in place, giving it an even new finish. We regularly repair ceramic & vitreous china basins, vanity unit basins and enamelled basins, and the jobs we see most are chips on a built-in basin and cracks around the tap holes or waste.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One picture of the entire basin
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Common questions in Stobswood
Do you cover Stobswood?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Stobswood. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
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.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Stobswood.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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, then guarantee it for a year.

Advice
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. 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.

What we are called out for in Stobswood
Fine crazing in the glaze is typically down to age, and strong chemicals speed it up.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Cracks starting at the waste
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- Chips from dropped toiletries
Questions to ask before booking
- What protection goes down before work starts
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How long it needs to cure
- What preparation is included
Repairs by material
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
What a repair cannot fix
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:
- Through cracks that let water out
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
