Sink repair for Bressingham Common homes

The process

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Ask for a price

Upload photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your IP22 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Suffolk and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

If you manage property in Bressingham Common, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The colour and finish to match

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Send photos for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin

Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
