Sink repair in Thelnetham without replacing anything
We repair chips, cracks and crazing in ceramic basins and vanity units, matching the colour and gloss. Nothing is taken off the wall. If you’re dealing with chips on a built-in basin and a chipped basin edge, we can normally put it right, on enamelled basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and Belfast and butler sinks alike.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new basin often means a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Prices start from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

FAQs for Thelnetham
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
What information do you need?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Generally, if it is not leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
What a repair cannot fix
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Widespread crazing
- Plumbing leaks
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we work on in Thelnetham

How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
What we are called out for in Thelnetham
Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- A chipped basin edge
