Sink repair at your home in East Dunbartonshire
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage so it blends into the glaze. We regularly repair enamelled basins, vanity unit basins and antique & period basins, and people most frequently call us about fine cracks across the glaze and a chipped vanity basin.
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- The basin can normally be used later that day or the following day.
Cost
Our sink repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Local landmarks in Kirkintilloch
In Kirkintilloch, that means homes near Kirkintilloch, The Kirky Puffer pub and Kirkintilloch High School and the streets around them. The nearest railway station is Lenzie station, roughly 0.9 miles south. Well-known places in the area include Barony Chambers Museum (0.7 miles north-west) and Woodilee Hospital (under half a mile south-east). The countryside around Kirkintilloch includes Gadloch and Bar Hill.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Common problems we fix in East Dunbartonshire
Fine crazing in the glaze is typically down to age, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- A crack near the taps
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- A period basin that needs restoring
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for East Dunbartonshire. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Get chips repaired early
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Repair or replace?
Replacing a basin often means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it leaves everything in place.
What your quote should include
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How changes to the job are handled
- What prep work is covered
- How long it needs to cure
Common questions in East Dunbartonshire
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
