Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed price, usually with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
The process
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a couple of hours for most chips, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- Usually the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice
When a repair is not the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Widespread crazing
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks

Common problems we fix in Sandend
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, and cracks can start at the tap holes.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- A crack near the taps
Before you book anyone
- How the room is protected while they work
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What aftercare is recommended
Landlords, agents and businesses in Sandend
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Aberdeenshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
- Something in shot to show the size
Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your AB45 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
