DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
Should you replace it?
Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Thornbury. What changes the price is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your photos
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A photo taken from further back
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
What we can’t put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Plumbing leaks
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
Thornbury: your questions answered
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Thornbury.
What happens after I send pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back, typically with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Landlord and trade work in Thornbury
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Thornbury as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Ask for a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire basin, we can price the job without visiting.
