How we handle sink repair in Creag Ghoraidh

A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. We fill, shape and polish the damage so it blends into the glaze. We’re often asked to fix chips on the rim or front edge and damage to a basin in a vanity unit, across Belfast and butler sinks, antique & period basins and vanity unit basins.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

What a repair can’t fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin

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

Materials we work on in Creag Ghoraidh

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

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Use gentle cleaners

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

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Signs you need sink repair in Creag Ghoraidh

A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, from glass bottles to hairdryers. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • A chipped basin edge

Choosing a repair company

Can I fix it myself?

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.

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

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The colour and finish to match

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Send us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your HS7 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Creag Ghoraidh questions

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

How soon can you come?

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

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes, very frequently. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

How much does sink repair cost in Creag Ghoraidh?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a basin frequently 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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Why us?

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Same prices wherever you are

For landlords and businesses

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

If you manage property in Creag Ghoraidh, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

How it works

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

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
