Portrush: your questions answered
Do you come to Portrush?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Portrush and the rest of Coleraine. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Normally, if it is not leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Portrush. The price depends on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A picture taken from further back
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire basin, we can price the job without visiting.
How the visit works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a couple of hours for most chips. We leave the room clean.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Open a window if you can
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Related advice
Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Portrush use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Widespread crazing
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A basin that moves on its brackets
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we work on in Portrush

Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Use a heat mat for hair tools

- Store toiletries on a shelf
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
