Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Avoid abrasive pads
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. 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.
Sink repair in Holm without replacing anything
Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. If you’re dealing with cracks around the tap holes or waste and chips on the rim or front edge, we can generally put it right.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Holm
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Na h-Eileanan Siar and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

What else we do in Holm
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
FAQs for Holm

Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, very frequently. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
When can you do it?

Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Advice
Repairs by material
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.

Should you replace it?
A basin is typically fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
