Sink repair in Bellevue, done in place
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. Repairs are polished to the same shine. We work on vanity unit basins, enamelled basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and common reasons people get in touch are chips on a built-in basin and knocks from hair straighteners.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Bellevue and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

How it works
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Questions from Bellevue
Do you cover the whole of Edinburgh?
The whole UK, including all of Edinburgh. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Edinburgh.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Why repair rather than replace?
Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Our sink repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Bellevue. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Use mild cleaners only
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Use gentle cleaners
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.
