Sink repair at your home in Drax
Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, basin damage is usually repaired in place. Nothing is unplumbed or taken off the wall. Common call-outs are for knocks from hair straighteners and chips on the rim or front edge, across vanity unit basins, antique & period basins and enamelled basins.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Quotes from your pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- A picture taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Drax questions
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, very often. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you cover the whole of North Yorkshire?
All of North Yorkshire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. 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 finish the repair to the same sheen.
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Don’t overtighten taps
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

How the visit works
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- Typically the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let us know about parking or access
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.
