Sink repair in Shaw Green without replacing anything
When a basin is worn or crazed all over, it can be resurfaced in place, for a fresh, even finish. We regularly repair Belfast and butler sinks, antique & period basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and people most frequently call us about cracks starting at the waste and damage to a basin in a vanity unit.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Repair or replace in Shaw Green?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What the surface is made of
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Common questions in Shaw Green
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Get chips repaired early
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Widespread crazing
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
