About sink & basin repair
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
How it works
You don’t need to empty the room. We bring all our kit in the van, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a couple of hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we are there. In a village or hamlet like St John's Town of Dalry, access can be the only tricky part. Once we’re there, the sink repair works exactly as anywhere else.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Make sure the area is dry
Ask for a price
Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your DG7 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Get chips repaired early
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Repairing versus replacing in St John's Town of Dalry

Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
