How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes a couple of hours for most chips, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- The basin can typically be used later that day or the next day.

Dalton Gates questions
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Generally, if it isn’t leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
How do I book?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Do you cover Dalton Gates?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Dalton Gates. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Use gentle cleaners
- Use mild cleaners only
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
When a repair is not the answer
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- Plumbing leaks
- A basin cracked through and leaking

What affects the price in Dalton Gates
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Questions to ask before booking
- How soon you can use it again
- Who will actually do the work
- If travel is included in the price
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers

Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
