Sink repair across Newtownabbey: what to expect

Period basins are worth keeping, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. Common call-outs are for fine cracks across the glaze and an antique basin with chips, on Belfast and butler sinks, antique & period basins and vanity unit basins.

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a couple of hours for most chips. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Pricing in Newtownabbey

Our sink repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Repairs by material

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.

Repairing versus replacing

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is generally the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route.

Questions to ask before booking

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

How to look after the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Do not overtighten taps
  • Use mild cleaners only

Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

What a repair can’t fix

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
