Sink repair in The Norfolk Burnhams without replacing anything

From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, basin damage is normally repaired in place. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. We regularly repair enamelled basins, Belfast and butler sinks and vanity unit basins, and common reasons people contact us are crazing in the glaze and knocks from hair straighteners.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in The Norfolk Burnhams as everywhere else we work.

Our hiring checklist

What happens on the day

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a couple of hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

What affects the price in The Norfolk Burnhams

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Access to the area
  • The material

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The material, if you know it

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

What your basin is made of matters

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

What a repair can’t fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A basin that moves on its brackets

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Questions from The Norfolk Burnhams

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes, very frequently. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Is it messy?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Are there extra charges for The Norfolk Burnhams?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Repairing versus replacing in The Norfolk Burnhams
