Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Rosewell use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
How to get a fixed price
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the entire basin
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Email us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your EH24 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Use gentle cleaners
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Get chips repaired early
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Repairing versus replacing in Rosewell
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is usually the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why us?
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- No need to remove anything
- Same prices wherever you are
- One visit for most repairs
