Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

How the visit works
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Open a window if you can
- Clear the area around the damage

Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Common problems we fix in Coscote
Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, along with damage during fitting.
People generally call us after spotting one of these:

Coscote questions
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Will you remove the sink?
No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
When we would advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
