About our sink repair in Granton
If the entire basin is crazed or worn, it can be resurfaced in place, for a fresh, even finish. If you’re dealing with damage to a basin in a vanity unit and damage from dropped bottles or hair tools, we can typically put it right, on vanity unit basins, Belfast and butler sinks and antique & period basins alike.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Comparing quotes
- How the colour is matched
- What protection goes down before work starts
- If travel is included in the price
- Whether a trained technician does the job
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Get chips repaired early
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Should you replace it?
Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.

- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

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
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
