Sink repair in Toad Row, done in place
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. We work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, enamelled basins and vanity unit basins, and common reasons people contact us are a chipped vanity basin and an antique basin with chips.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Suffolk.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Questions from Toad Row
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Toad Row?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
What information do you need?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Do you cover the entire of Suffolk?

For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

How to care for the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Repair chips before they stain
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
When we would advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin that moves on its brackets
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the whole basin
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Common problems we fix in Toad Row
Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Chips around the rim
- A crazed, tired basin
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
