Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Chediston. The price depends on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
- The material
- Doing more than one item at once
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- One picture of the entire basin
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
Repair or replace in Chediston?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is typically the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Questions from Chediston
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Often. Send us pictures and we’ll tell you.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Repairs by material
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
How the visit works
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Getting a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
