Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
Sink repair in Locheport without replacing anything
We match the glaze as well as the colour. Repairs are polished to the same shine. We work on enamelled basins, vanity unit basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and the jobs we see most are a period basin that needs restoring and chips from dropped toiletries.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Repairing versus replacing in Locheport
Replacing a basin frequently means a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. A repair leaves everything in place. Our sink repair starts 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.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Locheport. What changes the price is:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Your questions about sink repair in Locheport
Can you repair a cracked basin?
In many cases. Send us pictures and we’ll tell you.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Signs you need sink repair in Locheport
Most chips come from something dropped into the bowl, along with damage during fitting.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- Chips around the rim
- A crazed, tired basin
- A chipped vanity basin
Questions to ask before booking
- Who turns up on the day
- When it can be used again
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
