What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Send photos for a quote
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A picture taken from further back
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
FAQs for Auchtermuchty
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.
Do you cover the whole of Fife?
All of Fife, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Our sink repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
What you get with us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Use mild cleaners only
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
