Sink repair in Hadston without replacing anything
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage to blend with the surrounding glaze. We regularly repair antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and people most frequently call us about cracks starting at the waste and fine cracks across the glaze.

Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- Generally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Use mild cleaners only
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Hadston. The price comes down to:
