What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
What we do, step by step
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- Generally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Down Ampney. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Down Ampney. The price reflects:
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the entire basin

Most clients in Down Ampney get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
When a repair is not the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- Plumbing leaks
- A basin that moves on its brackets
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
