Our work in Canisbay
Canisbay is about 15 miles east of Thurso, in Highland. From the centre of Canisbay to the outlying streets, the service is the same: a fixed price, a tidy visit and a guarantee. We work in 253 places across Highland, from the larger towns to small villages.
Every address in KW1 is covered, from the main roads to the quietest streets. If you are just outside Canisbay, we cover Rattar (5 miles west), Scarfskerry (6 miles west), Keiss (7 miles south), Dunnet (8 miles west) and Brough (9 miles west). Further out, we also cover Thurso (15 miles west), Wick (13 miles south) and Castletown (10 miles west). Remote and island addresses take a little more planning, so it’s best to call first.
What’s near Canisbay
Typical jobs here are in homes near Canisbay Parish Church, among other places. Well-known places in the area include Castle of Mey (3.8 miles west) and The Last House Museum & Gift Shop (1.9 miles east). For a walk, there is Loch of Mey and Cairn Hill.
Sink repair in Canisbay without replacing anything
Chipped, cracked and crazed basins and vanity units can be repaired, with the colour and shine matched to the basin. The basin stays on the wall. If you’re dealing with a period basin that needs restoring and chips on the rim or front edge, we can help, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
For anyone letting property in or around Canisbay, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
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
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Avoid abrasive pads
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
What we cannot put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Widespread crazing
- Plumbing leaks
- A basin cracked through and leaking
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- The material
- How much damage there is
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Canisbay. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
What we do, step by step
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a couple of hours for most chips. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- Normally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
