Sink repair near Mauchline

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

What we work on

  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Antique & period basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Enamelled basins

About our sink repair in Mauchline

From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. Whether it’s a period basin that needs restoring and a crack near the taps, we can help, on ceramic & vitreous china basins, antique & period basins and enamelled basins alike.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How to look after the repair

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Get chips repaired early
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin

A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours in most cases. The room is left tidy.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. The basin can typically be used later that day or the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • One price list for the whole UK

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Mauchline. The price reflects:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One picture of the entire basin
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
