A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage so it blends into the glaze. We are frequently asked to fix crazing in the glaze and a crack near the taps, across Belfast and butler sinks, antique & period basins and enamelled basins.

Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Use gentle cleaners
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Related advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Ednam. The price comes down to:
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
For a price in Ednam, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
