Questions from Barns of Claverhouse
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Barns of Claverhouse
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Dundee and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Honest limits
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
Should you replace it?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Have new chips repaired quickly
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
