Sink repair at your home in Ardchattan
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage to blend with the surrounding glaze. Our technicians work on Belfast and butler sinks, antique & period basins and enamelled basins, and people most often call us about damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and cracks around the tap holes or waste.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Get chips repaired early
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Clean with mild, non-abrasive 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.
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
There are no surprise 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 quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- The material, if you know it
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
