Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Use gentle cleaners
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- 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.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- The basin can generally be used later that day or the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Ask for a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire basin, we can price the job.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
