- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- Generally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

Cowbit questions
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Usually, if it isn’t leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Get chips repaired early
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

When a repair is not the answer
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- Plumbing leaks
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
