Sink Repair in Riggend
Chip, crack and resurfacing work on bathroom sinks and basins in Riggend, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
How we handle sink repair in Riggend
Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, basin damage is generally repaired in place. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. If you’re dealing with damage to a basin in a vanity unit and crazing in the glaze, we can help, on enamelled basins, Belfast and butler sinks and ceramic & vitreous china basins alike.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
The process
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a couple of hours for most chips, including clearing up.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Make sure the area is dry
How to get a price
You do not 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 reply with a fixed quote.
Related advice
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Early repair keeps it a small job.

For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Riggend use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in North Lanarkshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Repair or replace in Riggend?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
