The process
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a couple of hours for most chips. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Questions from Ermine West
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Do you come to Ermine West?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Ermine West from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Ermine West
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Use mild cleaners only
- Use gentle cleaners
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
