How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed price
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A picture taken from further back
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your KA1 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Symington: your questions answered
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you cover the whole of East Ayrshire?
Across the UK, and that includes Symington. Prices don’t change with location.
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Honest limits
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Through cracks that let water out
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Use mild cleaners only
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Use gentle cleaners
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
