Sink repair in Stopper's Hill

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.

About our sink repair in Stopper's Hill

When a basin is worn or crazed all over, we can resurface it in place, giving it an even new finish. We regularly repair vanity unit basins, enamelled basins and antique & period basins, and common reasons people get in touch are a chipped basin edge and a crazed, tired basin.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Stopper's Hill and across Wiltshire.

What affects the price in Stopper's Hill

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your SN15 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

When a repair is not the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
  • Through cracks that let water out

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new basin frequently means a plumber, new taps or wastes and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Our sink repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Avoid abrasive pads

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.

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

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole basin and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  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

  • Open a window if you can
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Getting a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

What we’re called out for in Stopper's Hill

Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners chip the rim and front edge. Cracks often start around the taps and waste.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Crazing in the glaze
  • Chips on the rim or front edge
  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • Chips from dropped toiletries

Questions to ask before you book

  • What prep work is covered
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How to look after the finish
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Our hiring checklist

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

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.
