Sink repair at your home in North Connel
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage to blend with the surrounding glaze. We regularly repair ceramic & vitreous china basins, antique & period basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and the jobs we see most are an antique basin with chips and cracks around the tap holes or waste.

How the visit works
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a few hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Clear the area around the damage

Advice
What affects the price in North Connel

- Unusual colours or finishes
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send photos for a quote

North Connel questions
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in North Connel.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price. There’s no obligation to book.
How do I get a price for sink repair in North Connel?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff:
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
