About our sink repair in Berrysbridge
Period basins are worth keeping, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. We work on Belfast and butler sinks, antique & period basins and vanity unit basins, and the jobs we see most are chips on the rim or front edge and a chipped vanity basin.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Berrysbridge
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Berrysbridge as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Repair chips before they stain
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Use gentle cleaners
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Repairing versus replacing in Berrysbridge
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A picture taken from further back
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
