How we handle sink repair in Quothquan
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. We regularly repair antique & period basins, enamelled basins and vanity unit basins, and people most frequently call us about a crack near the taps and a crazed, tired basin.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Quothquan and across South Lanarkshire.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- One picture of the entire basin
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Your questions about sink repair in Quothquan
What happens after I send photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Do you work in Quothquan?

What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your ML12 postcode.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Quothquan.
Should you replace it?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Advice
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
What a repair cannot fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
