Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for New Lanark. What changes the price is:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How hard the colour is to match
- Doing more than one item at once

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Use mild cleaners only
- Have new chips repaired quickly
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Early repair keeps it a small job.
