People generally call us after spotting one of these:

  • Chips from dropped toiletries

  • A crack near the taps
  • An antique basin with chips

Choosing a repair company

Sink repair at your home in Roosebeck

Period basins are worth keeping, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. We’re often asked to fix chips around the rim and cracks around the tap holes or waste, on Belfast and butler sinks, ceramic & vitreous china basins and enamelled basins.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Should you replace it?

A basin is typically fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Our sink repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

What your basin is made of matters

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

How to look after the repair

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Get chips repaired early
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened

A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
