About our sink repair in Ten Mile Bank

Period basins are worth keeping, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. We regularly repair Belfast and butler sinks, vanity unit basins and antique & period basins, and common reasons people contact us are cracks starting at the waste and damage from dropped bottles or hair tools.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Ten Mile Bank questions

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

Normally, if it isn’t leaking. A crack that leaks right through generally means a new basin.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Norfolk.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Do you work in Ten Mile Bank?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Ten Mile Bank and the rest of Norfolk. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

How to look after the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge

Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Should you replace it?

A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

  • Most jobs done in one visit

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a couple of hours for most chips. The room is left tidy.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Access to the area
  • The material

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send pictures for a quote

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Do you need sink repair in Ten Mile Bank?

Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and strong chemicals speed it up.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • An original basin worth saving
  • A chipped vanity basin
  • A chipped basin edge

Before you book anyone

  • Who will actually do the work
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Our hiring checklist

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
