What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Unusual colours or finishes

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Stoke-upon-Trent. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

How we handle sink repair in Stoke-upon-Trent

When a basin is worn or crazed all over, it can be resurfaced in place, for a fresh, even finish. Typical jobs include a chipped vanity basin and a period basin that needs restoring, on ceramic & vitreous china basins, Belfast and butler sinks and antique & period basins.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

Repairs by material

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

What we are called out for in Stoke-upon-Trent

Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, along with damage during fitting.

Most people contact us when they notice one of these:

  • A chipped basin edge
  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • Crazing in the glaze
  • A crack near the taps

10 questions to ask before you book

How to look after the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Don’t overtighten taps

Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.

A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Common questions in Stoke-upon-Trent

Do you come to Stoke-upon-Trent?

We do. We send a technician to Stoke-upon-Trent for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do you cover the entire of Stoke-on-Trent?

The entire UK, including all of Stoke-on-Trent. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

When a repair is not the answer

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Plumbing leaks
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
