About our sink repair in Bucklesham
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. Whether it’s chips around the rim and a period basin that needs restoring, we can usually put it right.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Common questions in Bucklesham
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Typically, if it isn’t leaking. A crack that leaks right through generally means a new basin.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you work in Bucklesham?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Bucklesham and the rest of Suffolk. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
What happens after I send photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send photos.
How it works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, tidy-up included.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- Typically the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know about parking or access

Do you need sink repair in Bucklesham?
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, which can crack it around the holes.
Look out for any of the following:
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- A crazed, tired basin
- A period basin that needs restoring
Questions to ask before booking
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Aftercare advice
- When it can be used again
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Why repair rather than replace?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is typically best. Our sink repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
