About our sink repair in Girvan

Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. Our technicians work on Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and vanity unit basins, and common reasons people contact us are cracks around the tap holes or waste and an original basin worth saving.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

FAQs for Girvan

Do you work in Girvan?

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

What happens after I send pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Girvan, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. Usually the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How to get a price

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Our hiring checklist

What a repair cannot fix

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Antique & period basins
  • Enamelled basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Girvan. What changes the price is:

  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Girvan. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A wider photo showing the entire basin
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your KA26 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

What your basin is made of matters

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
