How we handle sink repair in Grangemouth

We repair chips, cracks and crazing in ceramic basins and vanity units, matching the colour and gloss. The basin stays on the wall. Our repair technicians work on antique & period basins, vanity unit basins and enamelled basins, and the jobs we see most are chips around the rim and a crazed, tired basin.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Before and after: a crack on the edge of a basin repaired

The process

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Advice

Grangemouth questions

Do you work in Grangemouth?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Grangemouth and the rest of Falkirk. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

Often. Send us photos and we’ll tell you.

Can you price it without visiting?

Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

What happens after I send photos?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send pictures.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

What we cannot put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better

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

What we work on

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

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Store toiletries on a shelf

Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Signs you need sink repair in Grangemouth

Fine crazing in the glaze is usually down to age, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.

Look out for these signs:

  • Crazing in the glaze
  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • A chipped vanity basin
  • A crack near the taps

What your quote should include

  • Who will actually do the work
  • What preparation is included
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What protection goes down before work starts

Choosing a repair company

For landlords and businesses

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
