Sink repair at your home in Stoneygate
Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, basin damage is generally repaired in place. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. Typical jobs include a chipped vanity basin and chips around the rim, on enamelled basins, Belfast and butler sinks and ceramic & vitreous china basins.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. 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 make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Fixed prices from your pictures

Your questions about sink repair in Stoneygate
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
What happens next?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Stoneygate included. Travel is included in the price.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, very often. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Use gentle cleaners
- Do not overtighten taps
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Stoneygate, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
How it works
You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- You can usually use the basin later that day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Ask for a price
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your LE2 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Advice
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
