How we handle sink repair in Cuidhir
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage to blend with the surrounding glaze. Our technicians work on enamelled basins, antique & period basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and common reasons people contact us are an original basin worth saving and chips around the rim.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Repair chips before they stain
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Questions from Cuidhir
What does sink repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Na h-Eileanan Siar.
Do you work in Cuidhir?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Cuidhir. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
How it works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a couple of hours for most chips, including clearing up.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
