About our sink repair in Mill of Fintray

We are often asked to fix a period basin that needs restoring and a crazed, tired basin, in vanity unit basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and Belfast and butler sinks.

Why repair rather than replace?
Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Use gentle cleaners
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
What we are called out for in Mill of Fintray
Most chips come from something dropped into the bowl, and some happen during bathroom refits.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- Chips around the rim
- A crack near the taps
- Crazing in the glaze
Questions to ask before you book
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- When it can be used again
- Who turns up on the day
- What happens if they find more damage
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
When a repair is not the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Through cracks that let water out
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
