How to care for the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the whole basin
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
