The process
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- The basin can typically be used later that day or the next day.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Have a window or extractor fan available

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How hard the colour is to match
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Details of any past repairs
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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.

Keyhead questions
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
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 Keyhead?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Keyhead and the rest of Aberdeenshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
What a repair can’t fix
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- Through cracks that let water out
- Widespread crazing
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Repairing versus replacing in Keyhead
Finding the same basin again is not always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Why book with us
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Same prices wherever you are
- Rooms protected and left tidy

Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
