Sink & basin repair in Inverlochy, Highland
We travel to Inverlochy for chip, crack and resurfacing work on bathroom sinks and basins. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Repairs from £95
- A chipped vanity basin
- Crazing in the glaze
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the entire basin
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.
Sink repair in Inverlochy 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 so it blends into the glaze. We’re frequently asked to fix a crack near the taps and a crazed, tired basin, across ceramic & vitreous china basins, antique & period basins and enamelled basins.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Advice
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Use mild cleaners only
- Avoid abrasive pads
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
What we can’t put right
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Widespread crazing
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Through cracks that let water out
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
When to call us in Inverlochy
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, so chips are common. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.
Look out for these signs:
- Chips on a built-in basin
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- A crack near the taps
- An original basin worth saving

What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
