What your basin is made of matters
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.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The type of damage
- The material and finish
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Send pictures for a quote
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A photo taken from further back
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Why repair rather than replace?
A basin is generally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Prices start from £95. 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 make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Your questions about sink repair in Duntocher
How much does sink repair cost in Duntocher?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Duntocher.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send photos.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Do you come to Duntocher?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Duntocher. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Duntocher as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What else we do in Duntocher
The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. We leave the room clean.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know which floor the room is on
