About our sink repair in Bottom Boat
We match the glaze as well as the colour, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. Repairs are polished to the same shine. Common call-outs are for an antique basin with chips and a chipped vanity basin, across Belfast and butler sinks, antique & period basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

What else we do in Bottom Boat
What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Get chips repaired early
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Bottom Boat
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bottom Boat as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
What affects the price in Bottom Boat
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- The type of damage
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A picture taken from further back
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Bottom Boat questions
Do you restore period basins?
Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
What we’re called out for in Bottom Boat
Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: bottles, hair straighteners and razors chip the rim and front edge. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Chips around the rim
- A period basin that needs restoring
- A crazed, tired basin
- Knocks from hair straighteners

What we do, step by step
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Open a window if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
