Sink repair in Evie without replacing anything
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. We regularly repair antique & period basins, vanity unit basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and people most frequently call us about damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and a period basin that needs restoring.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Use gentle cleaners
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
Landlord and trade work in Evie
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
When to call us in Evie
Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- Cracks starting at the waste
- An antique basin with chips
- Chips on the rim or front edge
What your quote should include
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Aftercare advice
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
Should you replace it?
Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Evie. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
