How we handle sink repair in Old Deer
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage so it blends into the glaze. We work on Belfast and butler sinks, ceramic & vitreous china basins and vanity unit basins, and the jobs we see most are a crack near the taps and a period basin that needs restoring.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Old Deer
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
If you manage property in Old Deer, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What else we do in Old Deer
When we’d advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Leaks from the fittings
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Old Deer. The price depends on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Use gentle cleaners
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon. We leave the room clean.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Make sure the area is dry
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
