Sink repair in Allanton without replacing anything
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. We’re often asked to fix a crack near the taps and a chipped basin edge, across Belfast and butler sinks, ceramic & vitreous china basins and enamelled basins.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Repair chips before they stain
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Common questions in Allanton
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
How much does sink repair cost in Allanton?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Do you cover Allanton?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Allanton for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Repair or replace in Allanton?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What we do, step by step
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- Generally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Advice
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
