What else we do in Drinsey Nook
Different materials, different repairs
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
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Lincolnshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Repairing versus replacing in Drinsey Nook

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- One picture of the whole basin
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Get chips repaired early
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.
