How we handle sink repair in Liff
When a basin is worn or crazed all over, we can resurface it in place, for a fresh, even finish. We work on vanity unit basins, enamelled basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and people most often call us about cracks starting at the waste and an original basin worth saving.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Dundee.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
- How easy the damage is to reach
Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Quotes from your photos
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Repair or replace in Liff?
A basin is usually fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Liff. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why us?
- Colour-matched on site
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Rooms protected and left tidy
See our prices page.
Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Use gentle cleaners
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Liff questions
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do you come to Liff?
We do. We send a technician to Liff for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Normally, if it isn’t leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
How much does sink repair cost in Liff?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Liff as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. 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.
