Sink repair at your home in Fife
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 are frequently asked to fix a chipped basin edge and knocks from hair straighteners, across enamelled basins, Belfast and butler sinks and antique & period basins.
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- Typically the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
What it costs in Fife
Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

Local landmarks in Dunfermline
Around Dunfermline, we work in homes near Dunfermline High School, Pittencrieff Park and St Leonard's Parish Church. For rail, the closest station is Dunfermline City station, about 0.7 miles west of the centre. Further afield, we also cover the area around Queen Margaret Hospital (1 mile north) and Dunfermline Palace (1.2 miles west). For a walk, there is Loch Fitty.
Repairing versus replacing
Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that.

Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Use gentle cleaners
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Have new chips repaired quickly
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
What a repair can’t fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Through cracks that let water out
- Plumbing leaks
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Fife
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Fife: your questions answered
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
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.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
