Repairs by material
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Use mild cleaners only
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon. The room is left tidy.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- Generally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Landlord and trade work in Dunure
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Send pictures for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
- A picture taken from further back
- Something in shot to show the size
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Dunure questions
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
What areas do you cover?
All of South Ayrshire, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Will you remove the sink?
No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Typically, if it isn’t leaking. A crack that leaks right through typically means a new basin.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, very often. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
