Sink Repair for Thelveton homes

- Repairs from £95
- Cracks starting at the waste
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Thelveton. The price depends on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Details of any past repairs
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Sink repair at your home in Thelveton
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage to blend with the surrounding glaze. We work on enamelled basins, vanity unit basins and antique & period basins, and the jobs we see most are damage to a basin in a vanity unit and chips around the rim.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Do not overtighten taps
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Your questions about sink repair in Thelveton
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
How the visit works
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Get a quote
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Should you replace it?
Finding the same basin again is not always possible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
When to call us in Thelveton
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, and cracks can start at the tap holes.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- An original basin worth saving
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
What to look for in a quote
- Aftercare advice
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- How the colour is matched
- When it can be used again
