What a repair cannot fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

  • Vanity unit basins
  • Enamelled basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Antique & period basins

Repair or replace: which is better?

A basin is usually fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why us?

  • One visit for most repairs
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

How to compare quotes

Can I fix it myself?

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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Use gentle cleaners

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

What affects the price in Alloa

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How many areas need work

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Alloa, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. You can usually use the basin later that day or the next.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
