DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Get chips repaired early
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

What else we do in Cringleford
Landlord and trade work in Cringleford
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

What your basin is made of matters

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Cringleford questions
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Surface cracks can usually be repaired. A crack that leaks right through usually means a new basin.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Cringleford?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What affects the price in Cringleford
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A photo taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
Most clients in Cringleford get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Why repair rather than replace?
