Sink repair at your home in Swan Village
From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, basin damage is usually repaired in place. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. We regularly repair Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and vanity unit basins, and people most frequently call us about a period basin that needs restoring and a chipped basin edge.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Questions from Swan Village
Will you remove the sink?
No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
What we do, step by step
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- Usually the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Landlord and trade work in Swan Village
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Swan Village as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Have new chips repaired quickly
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.
What we can’t put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Widespread crazing
- A basin cracked through and leaking
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
What affects the price in Swan Village
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Repair or replace: which is better?

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Swan Village. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
