Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Our sink repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.

Why Craigellachie clients choose us

The process

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. The basin can normally be used later that day or the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Details of any past repairs

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Craigellachie: your questions answered

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.

How do I get a price for sink repair in Craigellachie?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do you restore period basins?

Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Craigellachie

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Craigellachie as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers

Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.

A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
