Sink repair at your home in Freshwater East
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. We regularly repair vanity unit basins, Belfast and butler sinks and enamelled basins, and the jobs we see most are crazing in the glaze and a crack near the taps.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Do not overtighten taps
- Use gentle cleaners
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Repair chips before they stain
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
When we would advise against a repair
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Leaks from the fittings
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
When to call us in Freshwater East
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, and cracks can start at the tap holes.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Cracks starting at the waste
- A crazed, tired basin
- A chipped basin edge
What your quote should include

- How to look after the finish
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
Should you replace it?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Our sink repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
