We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What a repair can’t fix

- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- The basin can normally be used later that day or the next day.

Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Get chips repaired early
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Whitecross questions
What happens next?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including Whitecross and the rest of West Lothian. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
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.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Where you are, by postcode
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 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.
