DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. 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 photos.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Get chips repaired early
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Use gentle cleaners
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
What we cannot put right
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
