Draycott questions

What does sink repair cost?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Will you leave a mess?

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

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire basin and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

How we handle sink repair in Draycott

We repair chips, cracks and crazing in ceramic basins and vanity units, matching the colour and gloss. Nothing is taken off the wall. We are often asked to fix cracks around the tap holes or waste and chips on a built-in basin, on ceramic & vitreous china basins, antique & period basins and enamelled basins.

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material
  • A picture taken from further back

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

What we cannot put right

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Widespread crazing
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repair or replace in Draycott?

Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Draycott. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Signs you need sink repair in Draycott

Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped, so chips are common. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • A crazed, tired basin
  • A chipped vanity basin

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Avoid abrasive pads

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.

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.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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, a professional repair is worth it.

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
