Rendlesham questions
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, so Rendlesham is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Normally, if it is not leaking. A crack that leaks right through typically means a new basin.
What happens on the day
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours for most chips. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear the area around the damage

Do you need sink repair in Rendlesham?
Basins take knocks every day: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners chip the rim and front edge. Cracks frequently start around the taps and waste.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- An antique basin with chips
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- Chips around the rim

- Who turns up on the day
- What preparation is included
- If travel is included in the price
- How the room is protected while they work
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Get chips repaired early
- Use mild cleaners only
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
When we would advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- Leaks from the fittings
- Widespread crazing
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Should you replace it?
Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
