Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Use gentle cleaners
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Somerleyton. The price depends on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
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
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Related advice
Do you need sink repair in Somerleyton?
Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped, so chips are common. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- A crazed, tired basin
- An original basin worth saving
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- A chipped vanity basin
Questions to ask before you book
- How the colour is matched
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Aftercare advice

Landlord and trade work in Somerleyton
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Somerleyton as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
For anyone letting property in or around Somerleyton, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
