- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Advice
Sink repair in Ayton, done in place
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. We’re often asked to fix damage to a basin in a vanity unit and chips on the rim or front edge, on antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and enamelled basins.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Ayton and across the Scottish Borders.

Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Get chips repaired early
- Use mild cleaners only
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Ayton: your questions answered
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Usually, if it is not leaking. A crack that leaks right through generally means a new basin.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
What information do you need?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Repairing versus replacing in Ayton
Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your pictures
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.
For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
When a repair is not the answer
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Through cracks that let water out
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
