Sink repair in Braidley without replacing anything
Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. We regularly repair ceramic & vitreous china basins, Belfast and butler sinks and vanity unit basins, and common reasons people get in touch are a chipped vanity basin and chips on the rim or front edge.

How to look after the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Use mild cleaners only
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Ensure the area is dry
Ask for a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Your questions about sink repair in Braidley
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Will you remove the sink?
No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Which areas do you work in?
The whole UK, including all of North Yorkshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Do you come to Braidley?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Braidley from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new basin frequently means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
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.
