Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new basin frequently means a plumber, new taps or wastes and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair keeps the basin you have. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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 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 frequently lifts.
FAQs for Hatton of Fintray
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Aberdeen.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Often. Send us photos and we will tell you.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send photos.

The process
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Ask for a price
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire basin, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Advice
What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material and finish
- Whether we combine several jobs
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Email us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your AB21 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
