DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.

Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Get chips repaired early
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
What affects the price in Avoch
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Avoch. What changes the price is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
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.
Send photos for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
Most clients in Avoch get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Should you replace it?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
