How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a couple of hours for most chips from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Repair or replace in Broomhill?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is usually the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is generally best. Our sink repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Broomhill. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

When to call us in Broomhill
Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- An original basin worth saving
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
What to look for in a quote
- What happens if they find more damage
- How your room will be protected
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What aftercare is recommended
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Do not overtighten taps
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Use mild cleaners only
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
What a repair can’t fix
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- Leaks from the fittings
- Widespread crazing
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
