Our sink repair service in North Down
When a basin is worn or crazed all over, we can resurface it in place, giving it an even new finish. We regularly repair vanity unit basins, antique & period basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and common reasons people get in touch are chips on the rim or front edge and chips on a built-in basin.
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a couple of hours for most chips, including clearing up.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- Normally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
What it costs in North Down

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to North Down. The price depends on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- One picture of the entire basin
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire basin, we can price the job without visiting.
Why repair rather than replace?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching.
What your quote should include
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How to care for the finish
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Use mild cleaners only
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Widespread crazing
- Plumbing leaks
Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Your questions about sink repair in North Down
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you disconnect the taps?
Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Do you cover the entire of North Down?
The entire UK, including all of North Down. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
