Sink repair in Allonby without replacing anything
We match the glaze as well as the colour, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. Repairs are polished to the same shine. Whether it’s chips from dropped toiletries and a period basin that needs restoring, we can help, whatever the material.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
Common questions in Allonby
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Allonby?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Do you come to Allonby?
We do. We send a technician to Allonby for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- What the surface is made of
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Allonby use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
When to call us in Allonby
Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, which can crack it around the holes.
The things clients usually mention when they call are:
- A crazed, tired basin
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- Chips around the rim
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
What your quote should include
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How soon you can use it again
- How the colour is matched
- How your room will be protected
Honest limits
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Get chips repaired early
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Use gentle cleaners
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
