How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result. In Ardleigh Green, we’re used to flats, stairs and tight hallways. Everything we need fits in a few cases, and the room is sheeted before we start.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- You can generally use the basin later that day or the next.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

Repair or replace in Ardleigh Green?
Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. In flats around Ardleigh Green, replacing can mean noise, dust and permission from the building’s managers. A repair is quieter and quicker.
Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Have new chips repaired quickly
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
