Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Stonham Aspal. The price reflects:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How much damage there is

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your IP14 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Honest limits

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Leaks from the fittings
  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we work on in Stonham Aspal

  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Enamelled basins
  • Antique & period basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins

Should you replace it?

Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • No need to remove anything
  • A fixed quote before you book

See our prices page.

Signs you need sink repair in Stonham Aspal

Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, and cracks can start at the tap holes.

  • A chipped basin edge
  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • An original basin worth saving

What your quote should include

  • What prep work is covered
  • How the colour is matched
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • What protection goes down before work starts

How to compare quotes

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
