Your questions about sink repair in Skye of Curr

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes, very frequently. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Can you price it without visiting?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Do you work in Skye of Curr?

We do. Technicians travel to Skye of Curr from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Do you cover the entire of Highland?

We cover the entire UK, including Skye of Curr and the rest of Highland. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

What your basin is made of matters

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. Generally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Related advice

When a repair is not the answer

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
