How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Use mild cleaners only
- Use gentle cleaners
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Sink repair at your home in Mallaig
We match the glaze as well as the colour, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. Whether it’s fine cracks across the glaze and damage to a basin in a vanity unit, we can help, on vanity unit basins, enamelled basins and antique & period basins alike.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Mallaig: your questions answered
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What happens next?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Mallaig.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

About Mallaig
Mallaig (Gaelic: Malaig) is in Highland. Our technicians come to customers in Mallaig and nearby villages, so there’s no workshop to go to. Mallaig is one of 253 places in Highland we cover.
We work across PH41 and the streets around it. You’ll find streets such as Station Road, East Bay and Lochnevis Terrace. We also cover the places around Mallaig: Morar (2 miles south), Glenancross (3 miles south), Ardvasar (5 miles north-west), Armadale (5 miles north-west) and Kilbeg (6 miles north). Remote and island addresses take a little more planning, so call us to arrange it.
Local landmarks in Mallaig
We visit homes around Mallaig High School, Roman Catholic Church Of St Patrick and The Steam Inn. Mallaig has its own railway station: Mallaig station. Nearby you will also find Mallaig Heritage Centre (less than half a mile west). The countryside around Mallaig includes Loch an Nostarie.
Work for landlords and builders
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
How it works
We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- Generally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Related advice
What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Should you replace it?
Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, 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’s no premium for Mallaig. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
What you get with us

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- Leaks from the fittings
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
