Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Sink repair in Roslin without replacing anything
We match the glaze as well as the colour, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. We work on Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and antique & period basins, and the jobs we see most are a crazed, tired basin and damage to a basin in a vanity unit.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Roslin as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Send photos for a quote
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Natural light rather than flash
- A picture taken from further back
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Should you replace it?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Our sink repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Why us?
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Everything repaired in place

How the visit works
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
If you’re in Roslin and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Advice
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
What a repair cannot fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Leaks from the fittings
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Roslin questions
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What happens next?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff:
- Do not overtighten taps
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Use mild cleaners only
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
