Repairs by material
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.

Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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.
Common problems we fix in Thornholme
Fine crazing in the glaze is normally down to age, and strong chemicals speed it up.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- A chipped vanity basin
- Crazing in the glaze
What your quote should include
- Whether the price covers travel
- How the room is protected while they work
- How the colour is matched
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers

Advice
Should you replace it?
Replacing a basin frequently means a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. A repair leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
