What affects the price in Old Felixstowe
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether we combine several jobs
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.
Send pictures for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Should you replace it?
Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

When we would advise against a repair
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Get chips repaired early
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. 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.
