Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff:
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Get chips repaired early
Go 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 the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Hardgate: your questions answered
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Will you remove the sink?
No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.
Do you cover the whole of West Dunbartonshire?
All of West Dunbartonshire, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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, it’s worth having it done properly.
The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes a couple of hours for most chips in most cases. We leave the room clean.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- You can usually use the basin later that day or the next.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
How to get a price
Send us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Hardgate, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send photos for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the entire basin
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
