Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Why repair rather than replace?
A basin is typically fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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 make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What a repair can’t fix
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Repair chips before they stain
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- The basin can normally be used later that day or the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Questions from Kilton Thorpe
What happens next?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.
Will you remove the sink?
Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
Do you cover the entire of Redcar and Cleveland?
Across the UK, so Kilton Thorpe is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Surface cracks can normally be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
