Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Use gentle cleaners
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
For landlords and businesses
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in East Kilbride use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- Usually the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
