Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Sink repair in Kennoway, done in place
Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. Common call-outs are for fine cracks across the glaze and damage from dropped bottles or hair tools, in Belfast and butler sinks, vanity unit basins and enamelled basins.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

When we would advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Leaks from the fittings
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better

What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:
- A photo taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
FAQs for Kennoway
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do you disconnect the taps?
Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote, generally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Repair or replace in Kennoway?
Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Our sink repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- 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.
