What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

How the visit works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Cumbria and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Do not overtighten taps
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Grasmere: your questions answered
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What areas do you cover?
The whole UK, including all of Cumbria. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Do you work in Grasmere?
We do. Technicians travel to Grasmere from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
When we’d advise against a repair
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Widespread crazing
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A basin is normally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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.
