How we handle sink repair in Drumvaich
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. Whether it’s chips on the rim or front edge and knocks from hair straighteners, we can help, on ceramic & vitreous china basins, vanity unit basins and Belfast and butler sinks alike.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Drumvaich as everywhere else we work.

Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Repair chips before they stain
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Widespread crazing
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A basin cracked through and leaking
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Send pictures for a quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a couple of hours for most chips for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- You can normally use the basin later that day or the next.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Clear the area around the damage
How to get a price
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
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.
