Sink repair in Annbank

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Sink repair in Annbank, done in place

We match the glaze as well as the colour. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. Typical jobs include a chipped basin edge and damage to a basin in a vanity unit, in ceramic & vitreous china basins, enamelled basins and vanity unit basins.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in South Ayrshire.

Choosing a repair company

The process

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear the area around the damage

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Access to the area

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

How to get a fixed price

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire basin, we can give you a fixed price.

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Repair chips before they stain

Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

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