Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
How we handle sink repair in Peterculter
From cloakroom basins to period pieces, in ceramic, composite and enamel. There’s no plumbing to disconnect. We work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, antique & period basins and vanity unit basins, and common reasons people contact us are an antique basin with chips and knocks from hair straighteners.

Your questions about sink repair in Peterculter
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
Are there extra charges for Peterculter?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Often. Send us pictures and we’ll tell you.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
How it works
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Open a window if you can
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Repair or replace in Peterculter?
Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Avoid abrasive pads
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
