Sink Repair for Backmuir of Pitfirrane homes

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours for most chips. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- The basin can normally be used later that day or the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep a parking space free if you can

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Backmuir of Pitfirrane. The price reflects:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Natural light rather than flash
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
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.
Honest limits
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Plumbing leaks
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- A basin cracked through and leaking
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
