Sink repair at your home in Stronord
From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, basin damage is generally repaired in place. Nothing is unplumbed or taken off the wall. We work on antique & period basins, enamelled basins and vanity unit basins, and common reasons people contact us are fine cracks across the glaze and a period basin that needs restoring.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
When to call us in Stronord
Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, along with damage during fitting.
People normally call us when they notice one of these:
- A crazed, tired basin
- Cracks starting at the waste
- An original basin worth saving
- A chipped vanity basin
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

- How changes to the job are handled
How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Stronord. The price reflects:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send pictures for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
For a price in Stronord, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Repairs by material
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
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.
Why repair rather than replace?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is usually the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is usually best. Our sink repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Why us?
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Nothing taken out or refitted

How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Use gentle cleaners
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.
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.

What else we do in Stronord
Common questions in Stronord
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
Will you remove the sink?
No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Generally, if it isn’t leaking. A crack that leaks right through usually means a new basin.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
How the visit works
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a couple of hours for most chips, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
