Questions from Stoke Newington
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire basin and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
How much does sink repair cost in Stoke Newington?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your N16 postcode.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
When we would advise against a repair
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we work on in Stoke Newington
- Vanity unit basins

- Belfast and butler sinks
How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Common problems we fix in Stoke Newington
Fine crazing in the glaze is generally down to age, and strong chemicals speed it up.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- A crack near the taps
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- Crazing in the glaze
Questions to ask before you book
- How soon you can use it again
- How to care for the finish
- What preparation is included
- Who will actually do the work
Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy 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 them sympathetically.
For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
