About our sink repair in An Druim Beag

It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. If you’re dealing with chips on the rim or front edge and cracks starting at the waste, we can help.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

When a repair isn’t the answer

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Leaks from the fittings
  • Through cracks that let water out

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Your questions about sink repair in An Druim Beag

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

How much does sink repair cost in An Druim Beag?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Do you work in An Druim Beag?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to An Druim Beag and the rest of Highland. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Repairs by material

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

How to look after the repair

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened

Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

The process

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Ask for a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Our work in An Druim Beag

An Druim Beag (Gaelic: Drumbeg) is in Highland. We work in every kind of home, old or new, large or small, as well as offices, shops and holiday lets. An Druim Beag is one of 253 towns and villages in Highland we cover.

Landlord and trade work in An Druim Beag

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Should you replace it?

A new basin often means a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

What affects the price in An Druim Beag

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the entire basin
  • Where you are, by postcode

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
