Repairing versus replacing in Yorkhill
A new basin often means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Our sink repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Yorkhill. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why us?
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- We leave the room as we found it
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited

What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.
What we do, step by step
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

How to care for the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Landlord and trade work in Yorkhill
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Glasgow and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
What your basin is made of matters
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.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

FAQs for Yorkhill

Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
