Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing 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.
- You can generally use the basin later that day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Advice
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Use gentle cleaners
- Don’t overtighten taps
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
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.
What affects the price in Acton Scott
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the entire basin
Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Acton Scott, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
When a repair is not the answer
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Plumbing leaks
