About our sink repair in Killingworth
Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. We are often asked to fix a crack near the taps and damage to a basin in a vanity unit, in enamelled basins, Belfast and butler sinks and antique & period basins.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Honest limits

- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair

Advice
Repairs by material

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Questions from Killingworth
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
What areas do you cover?
All of North Tyneside, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Why repair rather than replace?
A basin is normally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Killingworth. The price reflects:
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
