Before and after: a crack on the edge of a basin repaired

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Different materials, different repairs

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Have new chips repaired quickly

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Early repair keeps it a small job.

What we can’t put right

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Framingham Pigot

  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins

The process

You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. The basin can normally be used later that day or the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area
  • How many items we do on one visit

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
