Advice
Sink repair in Kirktown, done in place
Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. We regularly repair vanity unit basins, Belfast and butler sinks and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and the jobs we see most are a crazed, tired basin and knocks from hair straighteners.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Kirktown and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Should you replace it?
Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Our sink repair starts from £95. 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Should I try a DIY kit 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, and the work is guaranteed.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Get chips repaired early
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Don’t overtighten taps
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
When to call us in Kirktown
Most chips come from something dropped into the bowl, along with damage during fitting.
The things clients normally mention when they call are:
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- Chips on a built-in basin
- An antique basin with chips
Questions to ask before you book
- What prep work is covered
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How soon you can use it again
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- Plumbing leaks
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins

Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
