DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Sink repair in Drakemyre, done in place
From cloakroom basins to period pieces, whatever they’re made of. There is no plumbing to disconnect. Whether it’s a chipped basin edge and cracks around the tap holes or waste, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

When a repair is not the answer
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Leaks from the fittings
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- Through cracks that let water out

Repairing versus replacing in Drakemyre
Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Repairs by material
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
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.
What we do, step by step
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.
Advice
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Get chips repaired early
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
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.
