Questions from Mattishall

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you restore period basins?

Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send pictures.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

Do you disconnect the taps?

No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Do you cover the whole of Norfolk?

We cover the entire UK, including Mattishall and the rest of Norfolk. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Landlord and trade work in Mattishall

If you manage property in Mattishall, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

The process

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Related advice

Signs you need sink repair in Mattishall

Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and strong chemicals speed it up.

Look out for these signs:

  • Crazing in the glaze
  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • A chipped vanity basin
  • Chips around the rim

Questions to ask before you book

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

Choosing a repair company

How to care for the repair

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Do not overtighten taps
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Repair chips before they stain

Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

What we cannot put right

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
  • Through cracks that let water out

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

What your basin is made of matters

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

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. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
