Sink repair at your home in Kirkton
If the whole basin is crazed or worn, it can be resurfaced in place, giving it an even new finish. Typical jobs include damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and chips around the rim, across vanity unit basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and Belfast and butler sinks.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

The process
You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need 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.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- The basin can typically be used later that day or the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Advice
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Avoid abrasive pads
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

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 finish the repair to the same sheen.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around Kirkton, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
