Sink repair at your home in Frinton-on-Sea
When a basin is worn or crazed all over, we can resurface it in place, giving it an even new finish. We work on Belfast and butler sinks, ceramic & vitreous china basins and vanity unit basins, and people most frequently call us about crazing in the glaze and a period basin that needs restoring.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Frinton-on-Sea questions
Will you remove the sink?
Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Surface cracks can normally be repaired. A crack that leaks right through typically means a new basin.
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.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

What else we do in Frinton-on-Sea
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Get chips repaired early
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
What happens on the day
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a couple of hours for most chips. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- Generally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Frinton-on-Sea. What changes the price is:
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Compared with replacing, 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.
How to get a fixed price
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
What a repair can’t fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin cracked through and leaking
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
