About our sink repair in The Village
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. We’re frequently asked to fix crazing in the glaze and a crack near the taps, on antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and ceramic & vitreous china basins.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in The Village and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Landlords, agents and businesses in The Village
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
What we can’t put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Leaks from the fittings
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Questions from The Village
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
How much does sink repair cost in The Village?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Do you work in The Village?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to The Village and the rest of South Lanarkshire. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Surface cracks can typically be repaired. A crack that leaks right through generally means a new basin.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
- The material
- The colour and finish to match
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Use gentle cleaners
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
The process
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a couple of hours for most chips. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
