DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Common questions in Stowting
Are there extra charges for Stowting?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
How much does sink repair cost in Stowting?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, very often. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
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.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
