How to look after the repair
To keep it looking its best:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Use gentle cleaners
- Repair chips before they stain
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
What a repair can’t fix
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Widespread crazing
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
