How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a couple of hours for most chips for most jobs. We leave the room clean.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- You can normally use the basin later that day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Honest limits
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Leaks from the fittings
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in Thorpe Marriott
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins

When to call us in Thorpe Marriott

Questions to ask before booking
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Who will actually do the work
- How the colour is matched
- How your room will be protected
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

Should you replace it?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is generally the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Our sink repair starts from £95.

How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
