Little Thetford: your questions answered
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you quote from photos?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Little Thetford?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Little Thetford and the rest of Cambridgeshire. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.

Common problems we fix in Little Thetford
Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- Crazing in the glaze
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- A period basin that needs restoring
Before you book anyone
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Who turns up on the day
- How changes to the job are handled
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Use mild cleaners only
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
