Sink & basin repair in Great Hautbois, Norfolk
Fixed-price sink repair in Great Hautbois and the surrounding area, done in a single visit in most cases and guaranteed for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- Cracks starting at the waste
- A period basin that needs restoring
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Sink repair at your home in Great Hautbois
When a basin is worn or crazed all over, we can resurface it in place, giving it an even new finish. We regularly repair enamelled basins, antique & period basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and the jobs we see most are a crazed, tired basin and damage from dropped bottles or hair tools.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Use mild cleaners only
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.

What your basin is made of matters
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.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
How it works
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Ask for a price

Your questions about sink repair in Great Hautbois
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, very frequently. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Do you restore period basins?
Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Honest limits
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks

Should you replace it?
Replacing a basin often means a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. A repair keeps the basin you have. Prices start from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
