Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

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 typically the cheaper route.

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers

Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Honest limits

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

How to compare quotes

What your basin is made of matters

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Repair or replace in Coalville?

A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is usually best. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
