When a repair is not the answer
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Through cracks that let water out
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Get chips repaired early
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.

Common questions in East Wretham
Do you cover East Wretham?
We do. We send a technician to East Wretham for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Typically, if it isn’t leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new basin often means a plumber, new taps or wastes and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair keeps the basin you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to East Wretham. The price depends on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
- A photo taken from further back
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
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.
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around East Wretham, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
