How we handle sink repair in Upper Stoke
From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, basin damage is typically repaired in place. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. We work on enamelled basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and common reasons people contact us are chips around the rim and fine cracks across the glaze.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.

When a repair isn’t the answer

How to look after the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Get chips repaired early
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
