How we handle sink repair in Penilee
When a basin is worn or crazed all over, it can be resurfaced in place, giving it an even new finish. Typical jobs include cracks around the tap holes or waste and chips on the rim or front edge, in enamelled basins, Belfast and butler sinks and ceramic & vitreous china basins.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Don’t overtighten taps
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Do you cover the whole of Glasgow?
We cover the entire UK, including Penilee and the rest of Glasgow. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.

What does sink repair cost?

What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Other services in Penilee
Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around Penilee, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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 do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
