About our sink repair in Strone
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. Our repair technicians work on Belfast and butler sinks, ceramic & vitreous china basins and antique & period basins, and common reasons people contact us are chips on the rim or front edge and an original basin worth saving.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Strone. The price comes down to:
- The material and finish
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the whole basin
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Repairing versus replacing in Strone
A basin is normally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Repair chips before they stain
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Use mild cleaners only
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
When to call us in Strone
Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: bottles, hair straighteners and razors chip the rim and front edge. Cracks frequently start around the taps and waste.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- A chipped basin edge
- A period basin that needs restoring
- A crack near the taps
Before you book anyone
- How your room will be protected
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
When a repair is not the answer
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- Leaks from the fittings
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
