Sink repair at your home in Luddington in the Brook
Period basins are worth keeping, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. We’re often asked to fix damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and cracks around the tap holes or waste, on antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and enamelled basins.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Use mild cleaners only
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Repair or replace: which is better?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is typically the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is usually best. Our sink repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
Honest limits
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- Leaks from the fittings
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in Luddington in the Brook

Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What information do you need?

Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- Typically the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
