Sink repair in Hellesveor without replacing anything
When a basin is worn or crazed all over, we can resurface it in place, giving it an even new finish. Our repair technicians work on enamelled basins, Belfast and butler sinks and vanity unit basins, and the jobs we see most are chips from dropped toiletries and damage to a basin in a vanity unit.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

- We protect the area around the basin.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
When we would advise against a repair
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

Materials we work on in Hellesveor
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
Repairs by material
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.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- 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 and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
