How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Avoid abrasive pads
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

How to get a fixed quote

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cheddar use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Repair or replace in Cheddar?

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
