Your questions about sink repair in Salhouse
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can you price it without visiting?
Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, so Salhouse is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a couple of hours for most chips, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Norfolk and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
How to care for the repair
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Have new chips repaired quickly
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Fine crazing in the glaze is typically down to age, and strong chemicals speed it up.
People typically call us when they notice something like this:
- Crazing in the glaze
- A crack near the taps
- An antique basin with chips
- Chips from dropped toiletries
Before you book anyone
- How long it needs to cure

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material
- How many areas need work
- Unusual colours or finishes
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Repair or replace in Salhouse?
