Sink repair in Botesdale Green, done in place
We match the glaze as well as the colour, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. Repairs are polished to the same shine. If you’re dealing with damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and chips on a built-in basin, we can typically put it right, on enamelled basins, antique & period basins and Belfast and butler sinks alike.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

How we price sink repair

- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is

You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What else we do in Botesdale Green
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Use mild cleaners only
- Get chips repaired early
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
