Sink repair at your home in Rodbridge Corner

A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. We are often asked to fix an original basin worth saving and chips from dropped toiletries, in ceramic & vitreous china basins, enamelled basins and antique & period basins.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Rodbridge Corner: your questions answered

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Do you cover the entire of Suffolk?

The entire UK, including all of Suffolk. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

How much does sink repair cost in Rodbridge Corner?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.

Are there extra charges for Rodbridge Corner?

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.

If you manage property in Rodbridge Corner, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

How to look after the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings

A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

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

Surfaces we repair

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

The process

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear the area around the damage

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
