How it works
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Related advice
What a repair can’t fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Use gentle cleaners
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Use mild cleaners only
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
