What we do, step by step
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a couple of hours for most chips, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- You can usually use the basin later that day or the next.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Ask for a price

Advice
When to call us in Broompark
Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped, from glass bottles to hairdryers. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Cracks starting at the waste
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- A crazed, tired basin
- A chipped basin edge

Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

What affects the price in Broompark
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
- The material
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Broompark. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Honest limits
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Leaks from the fittings
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in Broompark

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. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
