Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

When to call us in Eliburn
Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: bottles, hair straighteners and razors chip the rim and front edge. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.
People generally call us when they notice one of these:
- An original basin worth saving
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- A crack near the taps
- Crazing in the glaze
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How changes to the job are handled
- What protection goes down before work starts
- When it can be used again
Repairs by material
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.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
How the visit works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a couple of hours for most chips for most jobs. We leave the room clean.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let us know about parking or access
Getting 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 over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Questions from Eliburn
Are there extra charges for Eliburn?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you quote from pictures?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
In many cases. Send us photos and we will tell you.
For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Eliburn, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Why repair rather than replace?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Prices start from £95. 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 photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Why us?
- No extra charge for your area
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Rooms protected and left tidy
