Should you replace it?
A basin is normally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Thong. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
What you get with us
- Most jobs done in one visit
- One price list for the entire UK
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- We leave the room as we found it

Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Get chips repaired early
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.
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.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The type of damage
- The material
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A picture taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Your questions about sink repair in Thong
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, very often. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Frequently. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
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.
When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- Leaks from the fittings
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
