Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a basin frequently means a plumber, new taps or wastes and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Our sink repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why book with us
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Sink repair in Lyne of Skene without replacing anything
Period basins are worth keeping, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. We are often asked to fix knocks from hair straighteners and chips on the rim or front edge, on enamelled basins, Belfast and butler sinks and ceramic & vitreous china basins.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Lyne of Skene as everywhere else we work.

For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
If you manage property in Lyne of Skene, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
How it works
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- Usually the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Use mild cleaners only
- Don’t overtighten taps
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Common problems we fix in Lyne of Skene
Basins take knocks every day: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners chip the rim and front edge. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Crazing in the glaze
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- Chips on a built-in basin

Repairs by material
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
What we can’t put right
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Widespread crazing
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send pictures for a quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
