Repairing versus replacing in Drumclog

Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Common questions in Drumclog

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Which areas do you work in?

All of South Lanarkshire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can you repair a cracked basin?

In many cases. Send us pictures and we’ll tell you.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Will you remove the sink?

Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Different materials, different repairs

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

When to call us in Drumclog

Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, which can crack it around the holes.

People normally call us after spotting one of these:

  • A chipped vanity basin
  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • Chips around the rim
  • Fine cracks across the glaze

What your quote should include

  • How long it needs to cure
  • How your room will be protected
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether the price covers travel

Choosing a repair company

Can I fix it myself?

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.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Drumclog

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

How to look after the repair

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals

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 water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed price

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

The process

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  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

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Open a window if you can
