Sink repair at your home in Wissett
From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, basin damage is typically repaired in place. Nothing is unplumbed or taken off the wall. Our repair technicians work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, Belfast and butler sinks and vanity unit basins, and the jobs we see most are a crazed, tired basin and a chipped vanity basin.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Ask for a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Advice

What else we do in Wissett
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Repairs by material
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.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
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.

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Questions from Wissett
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Suffolk.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Will you remove the sink?
No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
How much does sink repair cost in Wissett?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your IP19 postcode.
When we would advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Through cracks that let water out
