Sink repair at your home in Birkhill
From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. Nothing is unplumbed or taken off the wall. Our technicians work on vanity unit basins, enamelled basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and the jobs we see most are chips on the rim or front edge and chips on a built-in basin.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Birkhill and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Leaks from the fittings
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins

Your questions about sink repair in Birkhill
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire basin and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Surface cracks can typically be repaired. A crack that leaks right through usually means a new basin.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Do you cover the whole of Dundee?
All of Dundee, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Do you disconnect the taps?
Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Landlord and trade work in Birkhill
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.
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.
What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How easy the damage is to reach
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the whole basin
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Should you replace it?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Our sink repair starts from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
What you get with us
- Fixed prices from your photos
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- One price list for the entire UK
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
See our pricing.
How the visit works
Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- 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 it into the surrounding surface.
- The basin can usually be used later that day or the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Open a window if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
