About our sink repair in Cawdor
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. Repairs are polished to the same shine. Typical jobs include a crack near the taps and chips on a built-in basin, across Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and antique & period basins.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

When a repair is not the answer

What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
The process
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- You can usually use the basin later that day or the next.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice
Landlord and trade work in Cawdor
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Use mild cleaners only
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, 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 clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
