Sink repair at your home in Inverkeithing
Period basins are worth keeping, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. We’re often asked to fix fine cracks across the glaze and cracks around the tap holes or waste, in vanity unit basins, antique & period basins and enamelled basins.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Inverkeithing
For anyone letting property in or around Inverkeithing, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.
Rental properties take more wear, 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.
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Use gentle cleaners
- Repair chips before they stain
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Point us to the nearest place to park

What affects the price in Inverkeithing
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How easy the damage is to reach
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The material, if you know it
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
