Questions from Portsoy
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. 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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Widespread crazing
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins

What else we do in Portsoy
What we’re called out for in Portsoy
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, so chips are common. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.
Clients typically contact us about:
- Chips on a built-in basin
- An original basin worth saving
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- Crazing in the glaze

- How the room is protected while they work

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
- How hard the colour is to match
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- One picture of the entire basin
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
