Kingennie questions
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Signs you need sink repair in Kingennie
Most chips come from something dropped into the bowl, and some happen during bathroom refits.
The things customers usually mention when they call are:
- Cracks starting at the waste
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- Crazing in the glaze
- An antique basin with chips
Questions to ask before you book
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What aftercare is recommended
When we would advise against a repair
We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Plumbing leaks
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we work on in Kingennie

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What we do, step by step
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Open a window if you can
How to get a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

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 polish the repair to suit.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Use mild cleaners only
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Should you replace it?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
