Sink repair in Dailly, done in place
When a basin is worn or crazed all over, we can resurface it in place, for a fresh, even finish. We work on antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and people most frequently call us about cracks starting at the waste and a chipped basin edge.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

When a repair is not the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Leaks from the fittings
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Dailly. The price depends on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Do not overtighten taps
- Repair chips before they stain
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Use gentle cleaners
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
How it works
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a couple of hours for most chips. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Open a window if you can
How to get a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
