Sink repair in Lullington without replacing anything
When a basin is worn or crazed all over, we can resurface it in place, giving it an even new finish. We regularly repair Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and antique & period basins, and common reasons people contact us are damage to a basin in a vanity unit and a crazed, tired basin.

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Your questions about sink repair in Lullington
Do you cover Lullington?
We do. We send a technician to Lullington for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole basin and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Through cracks that let water out
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

The process
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a couple of hours for most chips from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price

Related advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a basin often means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. A repair leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
