How the visit works
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, including clearing up.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- Typically the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know about parking or access
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
Getting a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Get chips repaired early
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Use mild cleaners only
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Work for landlords and builders
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
Letting agents often send us pictures 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.

Common questions in Thankerton
Can you quote from pictures?
Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
What areas do you cover?
All of South Lanarkshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Surface cracks can typically be repaired. A crack that leaks right through generally means a new basin.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send photos.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Repairing versus replacing in Thankerton
Replacing a basin often means a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Our sink repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Why us?
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Fixed prices from your photos
- Same prices wherever you are
- No need to remove anything

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, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
