Questions from Cole's Green
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
What areas do you cover?
All of Suffolk, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Leaks from the fittings
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
When to call us in Cole's Green

- Chips around the rim
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
