Sink repair in Glenburn without replacing anything
Period basins are worth keeping, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. We regularly repair enamelled basins, vanity unit basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and common reasons people contact us are chips on a built-in basin and a crack near the taps.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

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.
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.
Common problems we fix in Glenburn
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.
People typically call us when they notice something like this:
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- A crazed, tired basin
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools

What we can’t put right
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A crack that leaks right through the basin

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
FAQs for Glenburn
What areas do you cover?
All of Renfrewshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What does sink repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Use gentle cleaners
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
