The process
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together. Somewhere like Gairney Bank needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring everything needed for the sink repair, so there’s no second trip.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

FAQs for Gairney Bank
Will you travel to Gairney Bank?
We do: small places like Gairney Bank are covered as standard. Tell us if access is tricky.
Do you work for schools and businesses in Gairney Bank?
Yes, and we are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited. Tell us about access and timings for the building.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
