Sink repair in Am Blàran Odhar without replacing anything
We match the glaze as well as the colour, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. Repairs are polished to the same shine. We work on enamelled basins, Belfast and butler sinks and antique & period basins, and the jobs we see most are a crazed, tired basin and knocks from hair straighteners.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Am Blàran Odhar and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Can I fix it myself?
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: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Common questions in Am Blàran Odhar
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Surface cracks can typically be repaired. A crack that leaks right through normally means a new basin.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Do you cover the whole of Highland?
Everywhere in the UK, Am Blàran Odhar included. There is no extra charge for travel.
Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
What else we do in Am Blàran Odhar
Repairing versus replacing in Am Blàran Odhar
A basin is generally 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. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
