Sink repair near Stubbins

Sink repair in Stubbins, done in place

A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. Common call-outs are for damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and chips on the rim or front edge, in Belfast and butler sinks, vanity unit basins and antique & period basins.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Stubbins and across Lancashire.

Stubbins questions

Do you restore period basins?

Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Mention it when you ask for a quote.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you quote from pictures?

Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

In many cases. Send us photos and we’ll tell you.

How to compare quotes

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Stubbins, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

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

Repairs by material

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, then guarantee it for a year.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

The process

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours for most chips. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. You can usually use the basin later that day or the next.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
