Sink repair in Station Town without replacing anything
Period basins are worth keeping, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. We’re frequently asked to fix damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and chips on the rim or front edge, on enamelled basins, antique & period basins and Belfast and butler sinks.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in County Durham.

Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.
What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new basin often means a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Something in shot to show the size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire basin, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
