Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Repair chips before they stain
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a couple of hours for most chips.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know which floor the room is on

What a repair can’t fix
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Through cracks that let water out
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
