Different materials, different repairs
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 polish the repair to suit.
Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Common questions in Sternfield
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Do you cover the entire of Suffolk?
The entire UK, including all of Suffolk. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Are there extra charges for Sternfield?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Use mild cleaners only
- Repair chips before they stain
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 and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- Through cracks that let water out
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

- Ceramic & vitreous china basins

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
