Sink repair at your home in Thurnham
We match the glaze as well as the colour, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. We’re often asked to fix a chipped vanity basin and a crack near the taps, in vanity unit basins, enamelled basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Thurnham: your questions answered
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do you cover the entire of Kent?
The entire UK, including all of Kent. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What a repair cannot fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin that moves on its brackets
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Where you are, by postcode
- Something in shot to show the size
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. The room is left tidy.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- The basin can usually be used later that day or the next day.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know about parking or access
- Make sure the area is dry

Advice
Landlord and trade work in Thurnham
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Get chips repaired early
- Do not overtighten taps
- Use mild cleaners only
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Common problems we fix in Thurnham
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, and cracks can start at the tap holes.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- Cracks starting at the waste
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- A chipped basin edge
