Sink repair at your home in Mullion Cove
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. We regularly repair antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and common reasons people contact us are chips on a built-in basin and knocks from hair straighteners.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Most customers in Mullion Cove get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new basin frequently means a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
What you get with us
- Same prices wherever you are
- One-year guarantee on every repair

Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Do not overtighten taps
- Get chips repaired early
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
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.

Mullion Cove questions
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Do you work in Mullion Cove?
We do. We send a technician to Mullion Cove for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
When we would advise against a repair
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A basin cracked through and leaking
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
How it works
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- Typically the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
