When to call us in North Thoresby
Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and strong chemicals speed it up.
Most people contact us when they notice one of these:
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- An antique basin with chips
- Knocks from hair straighteners
What to look for in a quote
- Aftercare advice
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- If travel is included in the price
How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Do not overtighten taps
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed price
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.

Take a look at our pricing.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, very often. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Do I need to be at home?

Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can landlords book you?

Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
