Sink repair in Heaton, done in place
When a basin is worn or crazed all over, we can resurface it in place, for a fresh, even finish. Common call-outs are for chips on a built-in basin and chips on the rim or front edge, on antique & period basins, enamelled basins and Belfast and butler sinks.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Heaton and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Where you are, by postcode
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
When we’d advise against a repair
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Plumbing leaks
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Why repair rather than replace?
Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Our sink repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, 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.
Why us?
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Work done at your home or business

What else we do in Heaton
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
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 usually the cheaper route.
