Sink repair in Kenton Corner without replacing anything

When a basin is worn or crazed all over, it can be resurfaced in place, giving it an even new finish. Our repair technicians work on Belfast and butler sinks, ceramic & vitreous china basins and vanity unit basins, and common reasons people contact us are chips around the rim and crazing in the glaze.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from pictures

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the whole basin
  • The material, if you know it

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Should you replace it?

Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Our sink repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Kenton Corner. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • One price list for the entire UK

What to look for in a quote

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether they match the colour on site

10 questions to ask before you book

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin

Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

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

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Questions from Kenton Corner

Do you cover the entire of Suffolk?

We cover the whole UK, including Kenton Corner and the rest of Suffolk. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Will you remove the sink?

No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes, very often. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
