DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
What we’re called out for in Stoneclough
Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, which can crack it around the holes.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- Crazing in the glaze
- Chips around the rim

- Whether the price covers travel
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new basin frequently means a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Why us?
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Generally one visit, start to finish
- We leave the room as we found it
- No extra charge for your area

Questions from Stoneclough
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, very often. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Will you remove the sink?
No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Stoneclough?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire basin and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Use gentle cleaners
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
