Sink repair at your home in Lochmaddy
Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. We work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, antique & period basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and people most often call us about cracks starting at the waste and chips on a built-in basin.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
How it works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a couple of hours for most chips.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Repairs by material
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, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Repairing versus replacing in Lochmaddy
A basin is normally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. 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. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Will you leave a mess?

Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
