Sink repair at your home in Barnettbrook
We match the glaze as well as the colour, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. We work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, antique & period basins and vanity unit basins, and the jobs we see most are an original basin worth saving and crazing in the glaze.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Barnettbrook as everywhere else we work.

What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Common questions in Barnettbrook
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send photos.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Leaks from the fittings
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- A basin that moves on its brackets
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins

Why repair rather than replace?
A basin is generally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Get chips repaired early
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
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.
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.
How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a couple of hours for most chips.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- The basin can normally be used later that day or the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Barnettbrook. The price comes down to:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
