Repairing versus replacing in Thornton

Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Our sink repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why us?

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

What we are called out for in Thornton

A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, from glass bottles to hairdryers. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • An original basin worth saving
  • Crazing in the glaze
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste

10 questions to ask before booking

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How to care for the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Do not overtighten taps
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge

Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it doesn’t get chipped again.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

What affects the price in Thornton

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Thornton. The price reflects:

  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book.

Send photos for a quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

What your basin is made of matters

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.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

What we can’t put right

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
