- Cracks around the tap holes or waste

- A period basin that needs restoring

What your quote should include
- Whether a trained technician does the job

Can I fix it myself?
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.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
Questions from Rougham
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How much does sink repair cost in Rougham?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
In many cases. Send us photos and we will tell you.

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
