Sink repair in Hempton without replacing anything
Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. Our technicians work on antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and vanity unit basins, and common reasons people get in touch are cracks around the tap holes or waste and an original basin worth saving.

What affects the price in Hempton
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Advice
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Your questions about sink repair in Hempton
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Do you work in Hempton?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Hempton and the rest of Norfolk. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Our sink repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

When to call us in Hempton
Fine crazing in the glaze is typically down to age, and strong chemicals speed it up.
Common reasons people in Hempton contact us are:
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- Crazing in the glaze
- A crack near the taps
- A chipped basin edge
What your quote should include
- How the room is protected while they work
- Who turns up on the day
- How to look after the finish
- How changes to the job are handled
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
