About our sink repair in Pluckley Thorne
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. We fill, shape and polish the damage so it blends into the glaze. We work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, vanity unit basins and enamelled basins, and the jobs we see most are fine cracks across the glaze and damage from dropped bottles or hair tools.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a couple of hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Open a window if you can
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Landlord and trade work in Pluckley Thorne
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Pluckley Thorne use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Use mild cleaners only
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Pluckley Thorne. The price reflects:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Something in shot to show the size
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
