How we handle sink repair in Saltcoats
Period basins are worth keeping, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. Common call-outs are for knocks from hair straighteners and a crack near the taps, across antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and ceramic & vitreous china basins.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Get chips repaired early
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a couple of hours for most chips, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- 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
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Questions from Saltcoats
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Will you remove the sink?
No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do you cover the entire of North Ayrshire?
All of North Ayrshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
What does sink repair cost?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

- How much damage there is
- The material
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
