Sink repair in Meols Cop without replacing anything
If the whole basin is crazed or worn, we can resurface it in place, for a fresh, even finish. We are often asked to fix knocks from hair straighteners and a period basin that needs restoring, in ceramic & vitreous china basins, antique & period basins and Belfast and butler sinks.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Questions from Meols Cop
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire basin and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

What we can’t put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Through cracks that let water out
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
