Chilton: your questions answered
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Honest limits
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Leaks from the fittings
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Get chips repaired early
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Avoid abrasive pads
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
