Sink repair across Belfast: what to expect
We repair chips, cracks and crazing in ceramic basins and vanity units, with the colour and shine matched to the basin. Nothing is taken off the wall. Common call-outs are for a crack near the taps and a crazed, tired basin, on ceramic & vitreous china basins, antique & period basins and vanity unit basins.
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a couple of hours for most chips, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

How the damage happens
Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: bottles, hair straighteners and razors catch the front edge and rim. Cracks frequently start around the taps and waste.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- An original basin worth saving
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- Chips around the rim
DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
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.
Why repair rather than replace?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching.

How to care for the repair
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Use gentle cleaners
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
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.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
