Trusted sink repair in Pitcairngreen

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Sink repair in Pitcairngreen, done in place

We match the glaze as well as the colour. Repairs are polished to the same shine. Our technicians work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, Belfast and butler sinks and enamelled basins, and common reasons people contact us are a crack near the taps and an original basin worth saving.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Pitcairngreen and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What a repair can’t fix

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Our hiring checklist

Pitcairngreen: your questions answered

Is it messy?

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

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of Perth and Kinross. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Perth and Kinross.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes a couple of hours for most chips in most cases. We leave the room clean.

  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. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Ask for a price

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your PH1 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Do not overtighten taps
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your photos

Phone photos are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Any details about the material

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
