Sink repair at your home in East Cowton
We match the glaze as well as the colour, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. Repairs are polished to the same shine. If you’re dealing with chips around the rim and chips from dropped toiletries, we can normally put it right, on enamelled basins, antique & period basins and Belfast and butler sinks alike.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a couple of hours for most chips. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Advice
What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
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, and the work is guaranteed.

What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:
- One picture of the whole basin
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Get chips repaired early
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
What we are called out for in East Cowton
Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, which can crack it around the holes.

- Knocks from hair straighteners
- Crazing in the glaze

Why repair rather than replace?

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
