How we handle sink repair in Thorney
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. Repairs are polished to the same shine. Our technicians work on Belfast and butler sinks, antique & period basins and vanity unit basins, and people most often call us about a crazed, tired basin and an original basin worth saving.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a basin often means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. A repair keeps the basin you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 is not prepared the repair won’t last.
What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It usually takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on

For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Thorney: your questions answered
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do you cover the whole of Nottinghamshire?
Across the UK. Prices don’t change with location.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send photos.

Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Use mild cleaners only
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
