How we handle sink repair in Whitwell
Period basins are worth keeping, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. We regularly repair Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and vanity unit basins, and common reasons people contact us are a crack near the taps and an antique basin with chips.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

Whitwell: your questions answered
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
How much does sink repair cost in Whitwell?
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.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Do you come to Whitwell?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Whitwell and the rest of Norfolk. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Repair or replace in Whitwell?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

What a repair can’t fix
It helps to know what we cannot do too:

- A basin that moves on its brackets

What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- The basin can typically be used later that day or the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Ensure the area is dry
Ask for a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

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. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Whitwell. The price depends on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Get chips repaired early
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
