What affects the price in Thorndon Cross
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How much damage there is
There are no surprise 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
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- A picture taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Something in shot to show the size
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
Why repair rather than replace?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Honest limits
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
The process
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Repairs by material
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Do you need sink repair in Thorndon Cross?
Fine crazing in the glaze is typically down to age, and strong chemicals speed it up.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- A crazed, tired basin
- A chipped basin edge
- Chips on a built-in basin
