Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Avoid abrasive pads
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Questions from Gedding
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole basin and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Are there extra charges for Gedding?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Often. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Suffolk.

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Honest limits
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- Through cracks that let water out
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Should you replace it?
Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
