Repair or replace: which is better?

Tannochside: your questions answered
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Surface cracks can normally be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Tannochside?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your G71 postcode.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send photos.

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Tannochside. What changes the price is:
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
- The material, if you know it
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
What we cannot put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Plumbing leaks
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- Generally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
