From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, basin damage is usually repaired in place. Nothing is unplumbed or taken off the wall. Whether it’s a crack near the taps and a period basin that needs restoring, we can generally put it right.

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your photos

Phone photos are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Walcot Green, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

What we’re called out for in Walcot Green

Basins take knocks every day: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners chip the rim and front edge. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • Chips on the rim or front edge
  • A period basin that needs restoring

How the visit works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. The basin can usually be used later that day or the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage

Advice

Walcot Green: your questions answered

Will you remove the sink?

No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the entire UK, including Walcot Green and the rest of Suffolk. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

What does sink repair cost?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Repair chips before they stain

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Repair or replace in Walcot Green?

Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
