Sink repair at your home in Kingston Blount

Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, basin damage is typically repaired in place. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. We’re frequently asked to fix cracks around the tap holes or waste and a chipped vanity basin, across Belfast and butler sinks, ceramic & vitreous china basins and enamelled basins.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

10 questions to ask before booking

How to care for the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim

Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

What we can’t put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Kingston Blount. What changes the price is:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many areas need work

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Kingston Blount, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a couple of hours for most chips, tidy-up included.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Ask for a price

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Related advice

Why repair rather than replace?

Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

See our pricing.

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
