Sink & basin repair in Croftamie, Stirling
Chip, crack and resurfacing work on bathroom sinks and basins at your home in Croftamie, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Repairs from £95
- A chipped basin edge
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Use gentle cleaners
- Get chips repaired early
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Croftamie: your questions answered
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
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 I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Surface cracks can generally be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What we can’t put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Stirling and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
What happens on the day
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- You can generally use the basin later that day or the next.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send photos for a quote
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
Most customers in Croftamie get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
When to call us in Croftamie
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, so chips are common. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.
Customers generally contact us about:
- Chips around the rim
- A crazed, tired basin
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- Chips from dropped toiletries
What your quote should include
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What happens if they find more damage
- When it can be used again
