- Repairs from £95
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- A period basin that needs restoring
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
How we handle sink repair in Lugton
We repair chips, cracks and crazing in ceramic basins and vanity units, with the colour and shine matched to the basin. The basin stays on the wall. Typical jobs include knocks from hair straighteners and fine cracks across the glaze, across Belfast and butler sinks, vanity unit basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Lugton and across East Ayrshire.

Related advice
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Should you replace it?
Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Our sink repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
