DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Should you replace it?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is typically the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is typically best. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Your questions about sink repair in Galltair
Can you quote from photos?
Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire basin and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send photos.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Do you cover Galltair?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Galltair. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Use gentle cleaners
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the whole basin
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
For a price in Galltair, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Leaks from the fittings
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
