Sink repair in South Acre without replacing anything
Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult.

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the whole basin
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Honest limits
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- The basin can typically be used later that day or the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How to look after the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Get chips repaired early
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Repair or replace in South Acre?
A basin is normally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally 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 your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.

South Acre questions
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to South Acre from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
