Landlords, agents and businesses in Dunshalt
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Fife and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
How we handle sink repair in Dunshalt
From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. Our technicians work on enamelled basins, antique & period basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and the jobs we see most are cracks starting at the waste and knocks from hair straighteners.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours in most cases. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- Usually the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Honest limits
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Widespread crazing
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Leaks from the fittings
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins

How to get a fixed quote
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Repair chips before they stain
- Use mild cleaners only
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
