Sink repair at your home in Bantaskin
If the entire basin is crazed or worn, we can resurface it in place, giving it an even new finish. We work on enamelled basins, Belfast and butler sinks and antique & period basins, and the jobs we see most are chips on the rim or front edge and fine cracks across the glaze.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee.

What we do, step by step
We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take a couple of hours for most chips.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
How to get a price
Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your FK1 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

What a repair can’t fix
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better

Materials we work on in Bantaskin
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Use mild cleaners only
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off 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.

Common questions in Bantaskin
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Will you remove the sink?
Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Do you come to Bantaskin?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Bantaskin from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Bantaskin. The price comes down to:
- What kind of damage it is
- The material
- How many areas need work
- Unusual colours or finishes
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
