What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Flempton. The price comes down to:
- The type of damage
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Send pictures for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the entire basin
If you are in Flempton and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Sink repair in Flempton, done in place
Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. Our repair technicians work on Belfast and butler sinks, antique & period basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and common reasons people contact us are a period basin that needs restoring and a crazed, tired basin.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Flempton and across Suffolk.

When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Leaks from the fittings
- Widespread crazing
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Signs you need sink repair in Flempton
Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped, so chips are common. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- A crack near the taps
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
What to look for in a quote

What happens on the day
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, then guarantee it for a year.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
