About our sink repair in Creetown
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. If you are dealing with crazing in the glaze and a chipped vanity basin, we can help.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Creetown as everywhere else we work.

What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
What we do, step by step
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Should you replace it?
Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Why book with us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- We leave the room as we found it
- No extra charge for your area
See our pricing.
What we can’t put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Use mild cleaners only
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
How much does sink repair cost in Creetown?

Which areas do you work in?
We cover the whole UK, including Creetown and the rest of Dumfries and Galloway. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
