- Repairs from £95

Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Use gentle cleaners
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Get chips repaired early
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
How we handle sink repair in Broomhouse
If the entire basin is crazed or worn, it can be resurfaced in place, giving it an even new finish. We’re frequently asked to fix a crack near the taps and damage from dropped bottles or hair tools, in Belfast and butler sinks, ceramic & vitreous china basins and vanity unit basins.

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t 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.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
