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.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Clachan Seil as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Repair or replace in Clachan Seil?
A new basin often means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.
What you get with us
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Same prices wherever you are
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What else we do in Clachan Seil
How it works
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It normally takes a couple of hours for most chips, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
Ask for a price
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Advice
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Use gentle cleaners
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
What affects the price in Clachan Seil
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Access to the area
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
- The material
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the whole basin
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Clachan Seil questions
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
