Sink repair at your home in Ballifeary
We match the glaze as well as the colour, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. Repairs are polished to the same shine. Whether it’s chips around the rim and knocks from hair straighteners, we can help, on enamelled basins, vanity unit basins and Belfast and butler sinks alike.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Highland.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
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.
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
What we’re called out for in Ballifeary
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, which can crack it around the holes.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- Chips around the rim
- Chips on a built-in basin
- An original basin worth saving
What your quote should include
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether the price covers travel

Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
