Before and after: a chip on the front of a bathroom basin repaired

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. 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.

Annanhill: your questions answered

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes, very often. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Frequently. Send us pictures and we’ll tell you.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Do you disconnect the taps?

No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.

Do you cover Annanhill?

We do. Technicians travel to Annanhill from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Repair or replace in Annanhill?

Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Our sink repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

What you get with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Colour-matched on site
  • No extra charge for your area

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a couple of hours for most chips. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. The basin can normally be used later that day or the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your KA1 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

What we’re called out for in Annanhill

Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped, so chips are common. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • Chips around the rim
  • An antique basin with chips
  • Chips on a built-in basin

Questions to ask before booking

  • How your room will be protected
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Our hiring checklist

When we’d advise against a repair

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
  • Through cracks that let water out

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

What affects the price in Annanhill

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

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Access to the area
  • The material and finish

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Quotes from your photos

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
