Sink repair in Swarland without replacing anything
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. We regularly repair vanity unit basins, Belfast and butler sinks and antique & period basins, and common reasons people contact us are crazing in the glaze and chips on a built-in basin.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Swarland and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

How to look after the repair
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Use mild cleaners only
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
What a repair can’t fix
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Through cracks that let water out
- Leaks from the fittings
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
Your questions about sink repair in Swarland
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Usually, if it isn’t leaking. A crack that leaks right through usually means a new basin.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do you come to Swarland?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Swarland. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
The process
We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Swarland. The price comes down to:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A picture taken from further back
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Most clients in Swarland get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
