Sink repair in Fritton

Sink repair in Fritton, done in place

We match the glaze as well as the colour, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. Our technicians work on Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and vanity unit basins, and common reasons people contact us are a chipped vanity basin and chips from dropped toiletries.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Norfolk.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Fritton

Questions from Fritton

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Do you cover the entire of Norfolk?

We cover the whole UK, including Fritton and the rest of Norfolk. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Do you come to Fritton?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Fritton. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours for most chips. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to get a price

Most clients in Fritton get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Advice

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Store toiletries on a shelf

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

What we’re called out for in Fritton

Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: bottles, hair straighteners and razors chip the rim and front edge. Cracks often start around the taps and waste.

Common reasons people in Fritton contact us are:

  • Chips around the rim
  • An antique basin with chips
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • Crazing in the glaze

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How the colour is matched

Choosing a repair company

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Repairs by material

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage
  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send pictures for a quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
