About our sink repair in Armadale
If the entire basin is crazed or worn, we can resurface it in place, giving it an even new finish. Our repair technicians work on vanity unit basins, antique & period basins and enamelled basins, and common reasons people get in touch are chips around the rim and knocks from hair straighteners.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Armadale. The price reflects:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- A picture taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
Most customers in Armadale get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Common questions in Armadale
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole basin and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Surface cracks can generally be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Armadale?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

We cover every part of the IV45 postcode area and the streets around it. Jobs here include addresses on Allt A'tuath and Rathad na Chidhe and the roads around them. We also cover the places around Armadale: Ardvasar (1 mile south-west), Kilbeg (2 miles north-east), Mallaig (5 miles south-east), Morar (7 miles south-east) and Glenancross (8 miles south). Remote and island addresses take a little more planning, so it’s best to call first.

Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Repair chips before they stain
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Avoid abrasive pads
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
The process
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a couple of hours for most chips, including clearing up.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Repairing versus replacing in Armadale
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Our sink repair starts from £95. 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.
What you get with us

DIY kit or professional repair?
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, a professional repair is worth it.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
Honest limits
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
