Sink & basin repair in Stockwood, Dorset
We travel to Stockwood for chip, crack and resurfacing work on bathroom sinks and basins. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Repairs from £95
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- Chips around the rim
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Sink repair in Stockwood, done in place
Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. If you’re dealing with chips on the rim or front edge and an original basin worth saving, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Stockwood. The price depends on:
- The material
- How much damage there is
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Stockwood. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A picture taken from further back
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can price the job.
How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Do not overtighten taps
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Stockwood questions
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
