About our sink repair in Four Elms
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 work on Belfast and butler sinks, antique & period basins and vanity unit basins, and common reasons people contact us are chips on the rim or front edge and an antique basin with chips.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

When a repair is not the answer
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Leaks from the fittings

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- A photo taken from further back
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Use mild cleaners only
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
