Sink repair in Kesgrave, done in place
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 Belfast and butler sinks, antique & period basins and vanity unit basins, and common reasons people get in touch are fine cracks across the glaze and chips on the rim or front edge.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

When to call us in Kesgrave

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- Chips on a built-in basin
- A period basin that needs restoring

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
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.

Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
What affects the price in Kesgrave
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Kesgrave: your questions answered
Do you work in Kesgrave?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Kesgrave for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Are there extra charges for Kesgrave?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Normally, if it isn’t leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new basin frequently means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair leaves everything in place. Our sink repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why us?
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Colour-matched on site
- No extra charge for your area
- Nothing taken out or refitted

How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
