- Repairs from £95
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
- How hard the colour is to match
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A picture taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Repair chips before they stain
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Early repair keeps it a small job.

- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- Typically the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

When we would advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- Leaks from the fittings
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Thorpe Green questions
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Do you disconnect the taps?
Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole basin and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
