- How hard the colour is to match
- Doing more than one item at once
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

Sink repair in Ardpeaton, done in place
We match the glaze as well as the colour, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. Repairs are polished to the same shine. Common call-outs are for damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and a chipped basin edge, on antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and enamelled basins.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a basin frequently means a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. A repair leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Advice
What a repair cannot fix
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Plumbing leaks
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
