What a repair can’t fix

- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Plumbing leaks
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
