Your questions about sink repair in Shouldham Thorpe
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Shouldham Thorpe?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your PE33 postcode.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
Do you disconnect the taps?
Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
Repairing versus replacing in Shouldham Thorpe
A basin is usually fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Our sink repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
What you get with us
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Nothing taken out or refitted

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Common problems we fix in Shouldham Thorpe
Fine crazing in the glaze is typically down to age, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.
Clients usually contact us about:
- A period basin that needs restoring
- A chipped basin edge
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- Fine cracks across the glaze
Before you book anyone
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How changes to the job are handled
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
A few things move the price: 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.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
If you are in Shouldham Thorpe and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
