For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Northumberland and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
When to call us in Bothal
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, from glass bottles to hairdryers. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Crazing in the glaze
- A crack near the taps
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Chips on a built-in basin

Repairing versus replacing in Bothal
Replacing a basin often means a plumber, new taps or wastes and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Our sink repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

What a repair can’t fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- Leaks from the fittings
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Email us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your NE61 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
