Sink repair in Staffin without replacing anything
We match the glaze as well as the colour, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. Repairs are polished to the same shine. We regularly repair Belfast and butler sinks, antique & period basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and the jobs we see most are an original basin worth saving and a crack near the taps.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Get chips repaired early
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

What else we do in Staffin
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
