Sink repair across Stretton and nearby, generally in one visit.
- Repairs from £95
- An original basin worth saving

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Sink repair in Stretton, done in place
From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. Nothing is unplumbed or taken off the wall. We regularly repair Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and antique & period basins, and the jobs we see most are an antique basin with chips and chips from dropped toiletries.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What happens on the day
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It typically takes a couple of hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive

Stretton questions
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You will get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
Do you cover Stretton?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Stretton and the rest of Warrington. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
When we’d advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins

Do you need sink repair in Stretton?

Repairs by material
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 finish the repair to the same sheen.

Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Get chips repaired early
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
