- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What prep work is covered

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.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
West Leith questions
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
How much does sink repair cost in West Leith?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.
What a repair cannot fix
We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Leaks from the fittings
- Widespread crazing
- A basin cracked through and leaking

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A picture taken from further back
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Do not overtighten taps
- Repair chips before they stain
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Should you replace it?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
