Sink repair in Head of Muir without replacing anything
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. We fill, shape and polish the damage to blend with the surrounding glaze. Typical jobs include a crack near the taps and chips around the rim, on Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and antique & period basins.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Should you replace it?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is typically the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is usually best. Our sink repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Point us to the nearest place to park
How to get a price

Advice
How to look after the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Do not overtighten taps
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Head of Muir questions
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Do you cover Head of Muir?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Head of Muir and the rest of Falkirk. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
