Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Kedington
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Suffolk and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Use mild cleaners only
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
What happens on the day
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

How do I book?

When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
