Your questions about sink repair in Whitmore
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including Whitmore and the rest of Staffordshire. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole basin and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Will you remove the sink?
No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.
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.
Sink repair in Whitmore, done in place
Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. If you are dealing with cracks around the tap holes or waste and chips around the rim, we can help, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

When we’d advise against a repair
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
Why repair rather than replace?
A basin is typically fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Our sink repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: 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.

Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Use mild cleaners only
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
