Sink repair in Madderty without replacing anything

A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. Typical jobs include an original basin worth saving and damage from dropped bottles or hair tools, across Belfast and butler sinks, vanity unit basins and enamelled basins.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

What we work on

  • Vanity unit basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Enamelled basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Antique & period basins

When to call us in Madderty

Most chips come from something dropped into the bowl, and some happen during bathroom refits.

Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:

  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • A crazed, tired basin
  • Chips around the rim

Questions to ask before you book

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How to look after the finish
  • How long it needs to cure

Our hiring checklist

How to care for the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings

Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a couple of hours for most chips. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice

Should you replace it?

A basin is normally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Madderty

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Letting agents often send us photos 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.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • The material
  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send photos for a quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin

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