Repairing versus replacing in Broomhouse

A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair keeps the basin you have. Our sink repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

What we do, step by step

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Advice

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Vitreous china

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

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your G69 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Work for landlords and builders

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Glasgow and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Broomhouse questions

Will the price change on the day?

How to look after the repair

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened

A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
