Sink & basin repair in Cargenbridge, Dumfries and Galloway

- Repairs from £95

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Sink repair in Cargenbridge without replacing anything
We repair chips, cracks and crazing in ceramic basins and vanity units, matching the colour and gloss. The basin stays on the wall. If you’re dealing with a crack near the taps and an antique basin with chips, we can typically put it right, on enamelled basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and Belfast and butler sinks alike.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Repair chips before they stain
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Advice
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 finish the repair to the same sheen.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Why repair rather than replace?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is usually best. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Cargenbridge. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
