What we do, step by step
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- You can normally use the basin later that day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Ensure the room can be ventilated

Advice

Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Through cracks that let water out
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A basin that moves on its brackets
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Landlord and trade work in Balnacra
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Balnacra as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Use mild cleaners only
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Get chips repaired early
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
