Repairs by material
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.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
When we would advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Through cracks that let water out

How it works
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

What we’re called out for in Bàgh a'Chaisteil
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, and cracks can start at the tap holes.
The things customers generally mention when they call are:
- A chipped vanity basin
- A crazed, tired basin
- An original basin worth saving
- Cracks starting at the waste
Before you book anyone
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether the price covers travel
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
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.

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
