About our sink repair in Hyndland

It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. Our technicians work on Belfast and butler sinks, ceramic & vitreous china basins and enamelled basins, and common reasons people get in touch are an antique basin with chips and chips on a built-in basin.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a couple of hours for most chips, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

FAQs for Hyndland

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send photos.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do you come to Hyndland?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Hyndland and the rest of Glasgow. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

What we cannot put right

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Widespread crazing
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Through cracks that let water out

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Different materials, different repairs

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

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Why repair rather than replace?

Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • One price list for the whole UK
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

Do you need sink repair in Hyndland?

Basins take knocks every day: bottles, hair straighteners and razors catch the front edge and rim. Cracks frequently start around the taps and waste.

Customers typically contact us about:

  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • Crazing in the glaze
  • A chipped basin edge

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

How to compare quotes

How to care for the repair

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Do not overtighten taps
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools

Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
