Sink repair at your home in Berden
From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. Our repair technicians work on Belfast and butler sinks, ceramic & vitreous china basins and enamelled basins, and the jobs we see most are chips from dropped toiletries and a crack near the taps.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

What affects the price in Berden
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
- The type of damage
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A picture taken from further back
- Any details about the material
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
What a repair can’t fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Plumbing leaks
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a couple of hours for most chips. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- You can generally use the basin later that day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Repair or replace: which is better?
A basin is usually fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Our sink repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Repair chips before they stain
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
