How it 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 morning or an afternoon, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Ask for a price

Choosing a repair company

Repairs by material

Period and antique

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

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What we can’t put right

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

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • Plumbing leaks

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

  • Antique & period basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Enamelled basins

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin

Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
