Sink repair at your home in Scotforth
Period basins are worth keeping, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. Our technicians work on antique & period basins, enamelled basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and the jobs we see most are knocks from hair straighteners and chips on the rim or front edge.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a couple of hours for most chips.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Scotforth. What changes the price is:
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The material, if you know it
- Where you are, by postcode

Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
What else we do in Scotforth
What we cannot put right
We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Get chips repaired early
- Use mild cleaners only
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
