Sink repair near Boreland

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Sink repair in Boreland, done in place

It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. Repairs are polished to the same shine. We regularly repair vanity unit basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and the jobs we see most are damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and a chipped vanity basin.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Boreland: your questions answered

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

Normally, if it is not leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Boreland and the rest of Perth and Kinross. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.

What affects the price in Boreland

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Boreland. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A picture taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a couple of hours for most chips. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Get a quote

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Repairing versus replacing in Boreland

Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Our sink repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
