Sink repair in Bridge of Earn without replacing anything
When a basin is worn or crazed all over, we can resurface it in place, for a fresh, even finish. We work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, Belfast and butler sinks and antique & period basins, and the jobs we see most are a period basin that needs restoring and a crack near the taps.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Use mild cleaners only
- Use gentle cleaners
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Should you replace it?

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Advice
When a repair is not the answer
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Plumbing leaks
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Bridge of Earn questions
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Perth and Kinross.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
