Sink repair in Portmahomack, done in place
We match the glaze as well as the colour, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. Repairs are polished to the same shine. We’re frequently asked to fix fine cracks across the glaze and damage from dropped bottles or hair tools, across enamelled basins, antique & period basins and Belfast and butler sinks.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Landlord and trade work in Portmahomack
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Portmahomack as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
For anyone letting property in or around Portmahomack, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
What we cannot put right
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Plumbing leaks
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
Questions from Portmahomack
How do I get a price for sink repair in Portmahomack?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your IV20 postcode.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a basin frequently means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. A repair leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Common problems we fix in Portmahomack
Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Chips around the rim
- A crazed, tired basin
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Knocks from hair straighteners
Questions to ask before booking
- Who turns up on the day
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- How the colour is matched
- What preparation is included
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
