Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Widespread crazing
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Cowbridge with Llanblethian questions
Can you fix basins in a rental near Llantwit Major station?
Yes, rental work is a big part of what we do.
Is it worth repairing old basins in a period home in Cowbridge with Llanblethian?
Usually: original pieces are frequently better made and harder to replace. Send photos and we’ll advise.
Can you quote from pictures?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we tidy up before we leave.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Typically, if it isn’t leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, very often. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Get chips repaired early
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
