When a repair is not the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

  • Vanity unit basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Antique & period basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Enamelled basins

How to look after the repair

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Avoid abrasive pads

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Common questions in High Street

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

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you cover High Street?

We do. We send a technician to High Street for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

What areas do you cover?

The entire UK, including all of Suffolk. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Do you restore period basins?

Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.

Landlords, agents and businesses in High Street

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Suffolk and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a couple of hours for most chips. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Our sink repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Why us?

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Take a look at our pricing.

What affects the price in High Street

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Different materials, different repairs

Vitreous china

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

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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