Sink repair at your home in Stow Hill
When a basin is worn or crazed all over, we can resurface it in place, for a fresh, even finish. Common call-outs are for damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and a crazed, tired basin, on vanity unit basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and Belfast and butler sinks.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- 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 doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Repair or replace in Stow Hill?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Our sink repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why Stow Hill customers choose us
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Fixed prices from your photos
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Rooms protected and left tidy

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Stow Hill: your questions answered
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Generally, if it isn’t leaking. A crack that leaks right through normally means a new basin.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
The process
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- 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.
- The basin can usually be used later that day or the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
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.
Do you need sink repair in Stow Hill?
Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
