About our sink repair in Mossend
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. Common call-outs are for a crack near the taps and a crazed, tired basin, on Belfast and butler sinks, antique & period basins and vanity unit basins.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Other services in Mossend
Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Mossend use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in West Lothian and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
How to look after the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
When we would advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A basin that moves on its brackets
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Mossend: your questions answered
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
How much does sink repair cost in Mossend?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
How it works
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep a parking space free if you can
