How we handle sink repair in Fochabers
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. We work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, vanity unit basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and people most often call us about chips around the rim and a crazed, tired basin.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Leaks from the fittings
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Fochabers. The price depends on:
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price.
Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Don’t overtighten taps
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
Repairing versus replacing in Fochabers
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Common problems we fix in Fochabers
Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and strong chemicals speed it up.

- Chips around the rim

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
