Sink repair at your home in Cullercoats

A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. We fill, shape and polish the damage so it blends into the glaze. We regularly repair antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and enamelled basins, and the jobs we see most are a crack near the taps and chips on the rim or front edge.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. You can generally use the basin later that day or the next.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Getting a price

Repair or replace: which is better?

A basin is generally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Our sink repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why us?

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • One visit for most repairs
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

See our prices page.

When to call us in Cullercoats

Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, and cracks can start at the tap holes.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • An original basin worth saving
  • A crazed, tired basin
  • A chipped basin edge

Before booking anyone

  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How long it needs to cure
  • How the room is protected while they work

Our hiring checklist

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Cullercoats. The price comes down to:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How hard the colour is to match

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A wider photo showing the entire basin

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your NE30 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Cullercoats

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
