How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send photos for a quote
Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:

- Something in shot to show the size
- What it’s made of, if you know

Sink repair at your home in Kinneil
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. We’re often asked to fix a chipped basin edge and a crazed, tired basin, across antique & period basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and enamelled basins.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from 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.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Through cracks that let water out
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins

- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
Different materials, different repairs
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
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.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
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 photos, as it can add time.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Your questions about sink repair in Kinneil
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you cover the whole of Falkirk?
Across the UK, and that includes Kinneil. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, very frequently. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
