Monkland: your questions answered
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Monkland?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a couple of hours for most chips, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Have a window or extractor fan available

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Where you are, by postcode
Most clients in Monkland get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Repair chips before they stain
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Repair or replace in Monkland?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is usually the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is typically best. Our sink repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
