How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Quotes from your pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the entire basin
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
How we handle sink repair in Copdock
Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. Whether it’s damage to a basin in a vanity unit and fine cracks across the glaze, we can usually put it right, on enamelled basins, vanity unit basins and Belfast and butler sinks alike.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

What else we do in Copdock
Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
Common questions in Copdock
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Will you remove the sink?
No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Suffolk.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you cover the whole of Suffolk?
All of Suffolk, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. 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 do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
