What we cannot put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Plumbing leaks
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Widespread crazing
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Don’t overtighten taps
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. We leave the room clean.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.

How to prepare

FAQs for Stockton Brook
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Generally, if it isn’t leaking. A crack that leaks right through generally means a new basin.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Do you come to Stockton Brook?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Stockton Brook for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Will you remove the sink?
No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Do you cover the whole of Staffordshire?
Everywhere in the UK, Stockton Brook included. There is no extra charge for travel.
What your basin is made of matters
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.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a basin frequently means a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. A repair leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- How much damage there is
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
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 quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the whole basin
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.
