Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Do not overtighten taps
  • Get chips repaired early

Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Landlord and trade work in Upper Stoke

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Upper Stoke use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A basin that moves on its brackets

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Antique & period basins
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Enamelled basins

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Why repair rather than replace?

A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

FAQs for Upper Stoke

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send pictures.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Do you cover the entire of Coventry?

We cover the whole UK, including Upper Stoke and the rest of Coventry. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

What does sink repair cost?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your CV2 postcode.

What we do, step by step

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. The basin can normally be used later that day or the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
