Ashgrove questions
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Frequently. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Do you cover the entire of Moray?
Everywhere in the UK, Ashgrove included. There is no extra charge for travel.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole basin and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
About our sink repair in Ashgrove
We repair chips, cracks and crazing in ceramic basins and vanity units, with the colour and shine matched to the basin. The basin stays on the wall. We regularly repair antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and vanity unit basins, and people most often call us about an antique basin with chips and damage from dropped bottles or hair tools.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Through cracks that let water out
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Something in shot to show the size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
Upload a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your IV30 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Why repair rather than replace?
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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why us?
- Same prices wherever you are
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- Rooms protected and left tidy

Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Use mild cleaners only
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.
