Common questions in Saham Toney
What does sink repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.
Will the price change on the day?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Norfolk.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
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.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
What else we do in Saham Toney
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
When we would advise against a repair
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Plumbing leaks
- Widespread crazing
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new basin frequently means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair keeps the basin you have. Our sink repair starts from £95. 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.

Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Use gentle cleaners
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Do you need sink repair in Saham Toney?
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, and cracks can start at the tap holes.

- Chips on a built-in basin
- A crack near the taps
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- Crazing in the glaze

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- One picture of the whole basin
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your IP25 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
