When we’d advise against a repair

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

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

Materials we repair

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

Landlord and trade work in Letheringham

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Letheringham as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

For anyone letting property in or around Letheringham, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Period and antique

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

How the visit works

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

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. The basin can usually be used later that day or the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

Your questions about sink repair in Letheringham

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Suffolk.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

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

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

What affects the price in Letheringham

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Access to the area

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the entire basin
  • Where you are, by postcode

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
