FAQs for Rothesay
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
What happens next?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Do you come to Rothesay?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Rothesay for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Should you replace it?
A basin is typically fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

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. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Repair chips before they stain
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
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.
What we can’t put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Plumbing leaks
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
What happens on the day
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a couple of hours for most chips, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
