Sink repair for Invergordon homes

How we handle sink repair in Invergordon

Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. We regularly repair Belfast and butler sinks, vanity unit basins and antique & period basins, and the jobs we see most are chips from dropped toiletries and a crazed, tired basin.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Your questions about sink repair in Invergordon

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Does someone need to be in?

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

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you cover the entire of Highland?

We cover the entire UK, including Invergordon and the rest of Highland. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Do you disconnect the taps?

No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.

Should you replace it?

A new basin frequently means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. A repair leaves everything in place. Our sink repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

How to look after the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. The room is left tidy.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
