Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
Sink repair in Anniesland Cross without replacing anything
Chipped, cracked and crazed basins and vanity units can be repaired, with the colour and shine matched to the basin. The basin stays on the wall. We work on Belfast and butler sinks, vanity unit basins and enamelled basins, and people most frequently call us about chips around the rim and a crazed, tired basin.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Anniesland Cross as everywhere else we work.

Signs you need sink repair in Anniesland Cross
Fine crazing in the glaze is normally down to age, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.

- Chips around the rim
- A period basin that needs restoring
- A chipped vanity basin
- Knocks from hair straighteners
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the price covers travel

Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Get chips repaired early
- Use mild cleaners only
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
When a repair is not the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Plumbing leaks
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Anniesland Cross. The price reflects:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A photo taken from further back

How it works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a couple of hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- Typically the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price

Questions from Anniesland Cross
What happens after I send photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Anniesland Cross
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.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Glasgow and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
