What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.
How to prepare
- Make sure the area is dry
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Most customers in Auchinleck get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Have new chips repaired quickly
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, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
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.

Auchinleck: your questions answered
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Generally, if it is not leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Repair or replace in Auchinleck?
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. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
