When we’d advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Widespread crazing
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Antique & period basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Enamelled basins

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Bungay: your questions answered

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Often. Send us pictures and we will tell you.

Do you cover Bungay?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Bungay from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

What happens after I send photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a couple of hours for most chips, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice

Do you need sink repair in Bungay?

Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: bottles, hair straighteners and razors chip the rim and front edge. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • A chipped basin edge
  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • An original basin worth saving

Before booking anyone

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How long it needs to cure

Our hiring checklist

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The type of damage

Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Getting a price from photos

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the entire basin
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Don’t overtighten taps

Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
