Your questions about sink repair in Stone Street

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Are there extra charges for Stone Street?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

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

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings

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

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a couple of hours for most chips. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work
  • The material

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed price

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the whole basin
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Repair or replace: which is better?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is generally the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is generally best. Our sink repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Stone Street. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Our hiring checklist

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Vitreous china

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

When we would advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Leaks from the fittings

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

Materials we repair

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