Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.

How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Don’t overtighten taps
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
What affects the price in Great Glen
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- The colour and finish to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send photos for a quote
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
