Sink repair in Wroxham

Sink repair at your home in Wroxham

Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. We work on enamelled basins, vanity unit basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and the jobs we see most are a period basin that needs restoring and a crazed, tired basin.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

Repairs by material

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Wroxham. The price depends on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Access to the area

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the entire basin
  • Where you are, by postcode

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. The basin can generally be used later that day or the next day.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Our hiring checklist

Repair or replace: which is better?

Finding the same basin again is not always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Wroxham. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Wroxham

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Landlord and trade work in Wroxham

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Don’t overtighten taps

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

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.
