The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

How it works
Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- Usually the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

When a repair is not the answer
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Through cracks that let water out
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Widespread crazing

Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Suffolk and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send pictures.

What we are called out for in West Street
Most chips come from something dropped into the bowl, and some happen during bathroom refits.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Chips around the rim
- An antique basin with chips
- A crazed, tired basin
- A crack near the taps
Before you book anyone
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether the price covers travel
- How the room is protected while they work
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Use mild cleaners only
- Get chips repaired early
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
What affects the price in West Street
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
- Access to the area
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for West Street. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
For a price in West Street, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Repair or replace in West Street?
Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Our sink repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
What you get with us
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- No need to remove anything
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Same prices wherever you are
