The process
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Advice
Your questions about sink repair in Banchory
What areas do you cover?
All of Aberdeenshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Are there extra charges for Banchory?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Surface cracks can generally be repaired. A crack that leaks right through generally means a new basin.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Repair chips before they stain
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Landlord and trade work in Banchory
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Repairs by material
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Honest limits
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Through cracks that let water out
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
