About our sink repair in Honingham

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. We regularly repair ceramic & vitreous china basins, vanity unit basins and antique & period basins, and people most frequently call us about damage to a basin in a vanity unit and an original basin worth saving.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Honingham and across Norfolk.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Vitreous china

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

When a repair isn’t the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Plumbing leaks
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Honingham

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

If you manage property in Honingham, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a couple of hours for most chips, including clearing up.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Our sink repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Honingham

  • No need to remove anything
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • One visit for most repairs

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Fine crazing in the glaze is normally down to age, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.
