Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
How we handle sink repair in Wiswell
Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. We regularly repair Belfast and butler sinks, antique & period basins and enamelled basins, and people most often call us about chips on a built-in basin and a crazed, tired basin.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The size and number of damaged areas
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
