FAQs for Cow Green
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Suffolk.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Are there extra charges for Cow Green?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.
When we would advise against a repair
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Through cracks that let water out
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A basin that moves on its brackets
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we repair
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Use gentle cleaners
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Repair chips before they stain
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
What we are called out for in Cow Green
Fine crazing in the glaze is usually down to age, and strong chemicals speed it up.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- Crazing in the glaze
- Knocks from hair straighteners
What to look for in a quote
- What happens if they find more damage
- When it can be used again
- How the colour is matched
- How the room is protected while they work
Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- Typically the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Details of any past repairs
- Where you are, by postcode
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
