What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. The basin can typically be used later that day or the following day.

Advice

Your questions about sink repair in Tillicoultry

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Can you quote from photos?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole basin and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Will you remove the sink?

No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Clackmannanshire.

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Tillicoultry. The price reflects:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the photos on your phone. Ensure they show:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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 will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

  • Enamelled basins
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Antique & period basins

Different materials, different repairs

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Do not overtighten taps
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Repair chips before they stain

Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

When to call us in Tillicoultry

Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, and cracks can start at the tap holes.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • A crazed, tired basin
  • Cracks starting at the waste

What your quote should include

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether they match the colour on site
