Do you need sink repair in Craigie?

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • An antique basin with chips
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • Chips around the rim
  • Fine cracks across the glaze

Questions to ask before booking

  • Who turns up on the day
  • How your room will be protected

Before and after: a chip on the front of a bathroom basin repaired

How the visit works

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. Normally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Craigie. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One picture of the whole basin

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Craigie: your questions answered

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Do you disconnect the taps?

No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.

Do you restore period basins?

Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Do you come to Craigie?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Craigie and the rest of East Ayrshire. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.

How to look after the repair

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Avoid abrasive pads

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.

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.

When a repair isn’t the answer

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Antique & period basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Enamelled basins
  • Vanity unit basins

Should you replace it?

Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
