Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Use gentle cleaners
- Repair chips before they stain
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Your questions about sink repair in Ravenstruther
How much does sink repair cost in Ravenstruther?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
What do you need from me?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Most clients in Ravenstruther get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
