Choosing a repair company

How we price sink repair

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

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Doing more than one item at once

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your pictures

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Repair or replace: which is better?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is normally the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is generally best. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • No need to remove anything

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.

Landlord and trade work in Stone

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Stone use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Stone: your questions answered

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

How do I get a price for sink repair in Stone?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send photos.

Do you disconnect the taps?

No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Often. Send us pictures and we will tell you.

How to care for the repair

To keep it looking its best:

  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Repair chips before they stain

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a couple of hours for most chips, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  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. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. The basin can typically be used later that day or the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear the area around the damage

Getting a price

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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