How we handle sink repair in Black Street
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. We work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, enamelled basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and the jobs we see most are chips on the rim or front edge and damage to a basin in a vanity unit.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Black Street and across Suffolk.

Common questions in Black Street
Are there extra charges for Black Street?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Frequently. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole basin and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.
Landlord and trade work in Black Street
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

When we would advise against a repair
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Widespread crazing
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
How it works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- The basin can generally be used later that day or the day after.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- One picture of the entire basin
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
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, a professional repair is worth it.
