Sink repair in Ingliston, done in place
We match the glaze as well as the colour, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. Repairs are polished to the same shine. We are frequently asked to fix chips on a built-in basin and fine cracks across the glaze, in Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins.

Your questions about sink repair in Ingliston
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
What information do you need?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you come to Ingliston?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Ingliston from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Ingliston. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- The material, if you know it
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price.
What we do, step by step
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which generally takes a couple of hours for most chips. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Use mild cleaners only
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
When to call us in Ingliston
Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, which can crack it around the holes.
Contact us if you’ve noticed:
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- Chips on a built-in basin
- An antique basin with chips
