We regularly repair antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and enamelled basins, and the jobs we see most are chips on a built-in basin and damage from dropped bottles or hair tools.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Barmulloch and across Glasgow.

Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Have new chips repaired quickly
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Honest limits
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
Should you replace it?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is normally the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why book with us
- A fixed quote before you book
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Work done at your home or business
- No need to remove anything

DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Barmulloch questions
Do you come to Barmulloch?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Barmulloch for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Will you remove the sink?
No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Different materials, different repairs
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 them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours for most chips. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- 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 to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
