The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a couple of hours for most chips, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Honest limits
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Repair chips before they stain
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- A photo taken from further back
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
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 over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
