Sink repair in Stockton on the Forest without replacing anything
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. Common call-outs are for an antique basin with chips and a chipped basin edge, in ceramic & vitreous china basins, enamelled basins and vanity unit basins.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Repair chips before they stain
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
