How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a couple of hours for most chips. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Advice

Your questions about sink repair in Stonyford

Do you hold any accreditations?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send photos.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • Plumbing leaks
  • Widespread crazing
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

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

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

How to look after the repair

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Store toiletries on a shelf

Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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, and the work is guaranteed.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Stonyford. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • Any details about the material
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

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’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
