Sink repair in Oyne without replacing anything
Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, basin damage is typically repaired in place. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. Whether it’s a period basin that needs restoring and chips on the rim or front edge, we can help, on enamelled basins, Belfast and butler sinks and vanity unit basins alike.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Covering Oyne
Oyne is about 6 miles west of Inverurie, in Aberdeenshire. We visit clients in Oyne and nearby villages, so you do not need to take anything anywhere. We work in 161 places across Aberdeenshire, from the larger towns to small villages.
We work across the AB52 postcode area and the streets around it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
How it works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, tidy-up included.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
What we’re called out for in Oyne
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, from glass bottles to hairdryers. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Crazing in the glaze
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- A chipped vanity basin
- A crack near the taps
Before you book anyone
- Whether the price covers travel
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether they match the colour on site

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
When a repair is not the answer
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Plumbing leaks
- Through cracks that let water out
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
A few things move the price: 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.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Why repair rather than replace?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.
