How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Have new chips repaired quickly
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Common problems we fix in Thornfalcon
Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and strong chemicals speed it up.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Chips on a built-in basin
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- An antique basin with chips
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
Before you book anyone
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How your room will be protected
- If travel is included in the price
- Who turns up on the day
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
How the visit works
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, tidy-up included.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- The basin can generally be used later that day or the following day.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Ask for a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
