- Repairs from £95
- A chipped basin edge
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Repair chips before they stain
- Use gentle cleaners
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.
How we handle sink repair in Stocking
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. Common call-outs are for damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and a chipped vanity basin, in vanity unit basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and enamelled basins.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

Stocking: your questions answered
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, and that includes Stocking. Prices don’t change with location.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
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.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What a repair cannot fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Plumbing leaks
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin that moves on its brackets
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
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.
For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

What else we do in Stocking
The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- You can normally use the basin later that day or the next.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
