- A period basin that needs restoring
What your quote should include

Sink repair in Whittlebury, done in place
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. Repairs are polished to the same shine. Our technicians work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, vanity unit basins and enamelled basins, and common reasons people get in touch are cracks starting at the waste and an antique basin with chips.

What else we do in Whittlebury
What affects the price in Whittlebury
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Whittlebury. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Repair or replace in Whittlebury?
Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. 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.
Why choose Surface Doctor in Whittlebury

Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
