About our sink repair in Coltness
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. If you’re dealing with chips on a built-in basin and chips around the rim, we can help, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Get chips repaired early
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Repairs by material
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.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
What a repair cannot fix
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Through cracks that let water out
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
