How the visit works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. 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 protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Should you replace it?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is generally the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is normally best. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

What affects the price in Castle Acre
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Castle Acre. The price comes down to:
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How hard the colour is to match
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- Any details about the material
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- Leaks from the fittings
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- A basin that moves on its brackets
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Castle Acre, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Questions from Castle Acre
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Usually, if it isn’t leaking. A crack that leaks right through normally means a new basin.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
How much does sink repair cost in Castle Acre?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your PE32 postcode.
