Sink repair in Prestolee without replacing anything
We match the glaze as well as the colour. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. If you are dealing with a crack near the taps and a chipped vanity basin, we can help, on Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and antique & period basins alike.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How it works
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a couple of hours for most chips. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Make sure the area is dry
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Repair chips before they stain
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Your questions about sink repair in Prestolee
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Do you come to Prestolee?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Prestolee for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you quote from pictures?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed price. You’re under no obligation.
What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Prestolee. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Something in shot to show the size
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Landlord and trade work in Prestolee
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
