Sink repair in Claverhouse, done in place
We match the glaze as well as the colour, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. Repairs are polished to the same shine. We’re frequently asked to fix a chipped basin edge and knocks from hair straighteners, across enamelled basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and antique & period basins.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Claverhouse and across Dundee.

Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

How much does sink repair cost in Claverhouse?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.
How the visit works
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, tidy-up included.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- Usually the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Ask for a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Advice
Other services in Claverhouse

- Chips on the rim or front edge
What to look for in a quote
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
- The material and finish
- How much damage there is
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
Send us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Claverhouse, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Claverhouse. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why book with us
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Landlord and trade work in Claverhouse
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Dundee and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we work on in Claverhouse
