Sink repair in Lonemore, done in place
We repair chips, cracks and crazing in ceramic basins and vanity units, matching the colour and gloss. The basin stays on the wall. We’re frequently asked to fix a crack near the taps and chips on the rim or front edge, across vanity unit basins, Belfast and butler sinks and antique & period basins.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
When to call us in Lonemore
Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners chip the rim and front edge. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- A crazed, tired basin
- A chipped vanity basin
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- Chips around the rim
What your quote should include
- What preparation is included
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Use mild cleaners only
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
Honest limits
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Leaks from the fittings
- Widespread crazing
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

FAQs for Lonemore
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Lonemore?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Will you remove the sink?
Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
The process
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a couple of hours for most chips. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Getting a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed price
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- One picture of the entire basin
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
