Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

- Through cracks that let water out
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

- Enamelled basins

How the visit works
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- Generally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Fine crazing in the glaze is normally down to age, and strong chemicals speed it up.

- Chips on a built-in basin
- Cracks starting at the waste

- Chips from dropped toiletries
Questions to ask before you book

What affects the price in Barrhill
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send photos for a quote
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Details of any past repairs
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Most clients in Barrhill get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Repairs by material
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Why repair rather than replace?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is normally the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Landlord and trade work in Barrhill
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
