About our sink repair in Stoke Heath

When a basin is worn or crazed all over, it can be resurfaced in place, giving it an even new finish. We are often asked to fix chips on a built-in basin and fine cracks across the glaze, in vanity unit basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and enamelled basins.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

FAQs for Stoke Heath

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We come back with a fixed price. You’re under no obligation.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Stoke Heath. Our prices are the same everywhere.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

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

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Have new chips repaired quickly

Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Through cracks that let water out

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Antique & period basins
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Enamelled basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins

When to call us in Stoke Heath

Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Crazing in the glaze
  • Chips around the rim
  • A chipped vanity basin
  • Cracks starting at the waste

Questions to ask before you book

  • If travel is included in the price
  • What preparation is included
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

Our hiring checklist

Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material
  • Access to the area

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • The material, if you know it
  • One picture of the entire basin
  • Where you are, by postcode

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

How it works

Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. The basin can usually be used later that day or the following day.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
