Questions from Drakelow

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.

What happens next?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Can you repair a cracked basin?

Typically, if it is not leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Sink repair in Drakelow, done in place

A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. We fill, shape and polish the damage to blend with the surrounding glaze. Our repair technicians work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, Belfast and butler sinks and enamelled basins, and people most often call us about knocks from hair straighteners and chips on a built-in basin.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Should you replace it?

A basin is normally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Drakelow. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to look after the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

What affects the price in Drakelow

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How much damage there is

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the entire basin
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your DY11 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

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. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

When a repair is not the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Leaks from the fittings
  • Through cracks that let water out

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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