Sink repair in Arbuthnott, done in place
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. Typical jobs include an antique basin with chips and cracks around the tap holes or waste, across Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins.

What affects the price in Arbuthnott
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Arbuthnott. The price depends on:
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
- The material
- The colour and finish to match
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?
- No need to remove anything
- One price list for the entire UK
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- A year’s guarantee on all work

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Arbuthnott questions
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What a repair can’t fix
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Leaks from the fittings
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
