Sink repair at your home in Craighouse

It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. Repairs are polished to the same shine.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

Questions from Craighouse

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

Do you restore period basins?

Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can you repair a cracked basin?

Surface cracks can generally be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

Do you disconnect the taps?

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

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Craighouse

If you manage property in Craighouse, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

What affects the price in Craighouse

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Craighouse. What changes the price is:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What kind of damage it is

Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A wider photo showing the entire basin
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

For a price in Craighouse, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a couple of hours for most chips. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Related advice

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Repair or replace in Craighouse?

Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Our sink repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Craighouse. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • No need to remove anything
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
