The process

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Questions from Muirend

Do you cover the entire of Glasgow?

The entire UK, including all of Glasgow. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Do you cover Muirend?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Muirend from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

How much does sink repair cost in Muirend?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Most clients in Muirend get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What we cannot put right

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • A basin that moves on its brackets

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Glasgow and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
