Common questions in Fishcross
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, very frequently. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Sink repair in Fishcross, done in place
If the entire basin is crazed or worn, we can resurface it in place, giving it an even new finish. Our technicians work on vanity unit basins, enamelled basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and people most frequently call us about a crack near the taps and chips on the rim or front edge.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Use gentle cleaners
- Use mild cleaners only
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
The process
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know which floor the room is on
