Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Landlord and trade work in Graveley
