I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The type of damage
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the entire basin
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.
When a repair is not the answer
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Leaks from the fittings
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- 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.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
